Game Changer

Our Fifty-Year Mission to Secure America's Energy Independence

About this book

Game Changer is the story of one man's fifty-year journey doing battle with the conventional wisdom and in the process helping to restore America as an energy superpower. A day doesn't go by without energy in the headlines. From banning gas stoves to prices at the pump to threats to the world's energy supplies, energy is front and center. Most of what we are hearing is high emotion, low-fact misinformation offered by folks who have no clue what they are talking about. Game Changer is the story of Harold Hamm and his fifty-year journey battling conventional wisdom and, in the process, helping restore America as an energy superpower. How did he do it? With horizontal drilling. What Hamm did was game changing—for his country and the world. In Game Changer, Hamm explains:

  • Why American Energy Independence is the most important policy to guarantee our long-term economic and national security.
  • How the conversion to natural gas for electricity production in the US has led to the largest declines in emissions in the industrialized world.
  • Why much of the energy narrative is distorted by money, politics, activism, and virtue-signaling.
  • Why the so-called "energy crisis" in America is self-inflicted.


We've been relentlessly told that oil and natural gas is the enemy, that humanity's very existence depends on its extinction. Yet our whole world— your world— runs on it. Game Changer invites you to learn the real story, the story we all need to hear, told through the common-sense eyes of the man who has led what he calls the American Energy Renaissance. If you care about your future, and the future of your kids and grandkids, read this book.
