The 2011 Bakken GuidebookYou can order it from The Rocky Mountain Association of Geologists. At the website, click on "Store" and search for "Bakken." It will probably be the first book to pop up.
According to one of the editors:
This book has the latest info from authors who work for EOG, Whiting, Samson, Colorado School of Mines, North Dakota Geological Survey, Colorado State University, and Cirque Resources, among others. It includes two of the classic publications by Leigh Price and a paper by Mike Johnson on the discovery of Parshall Field (he's the geologist who sold the original deal to EOG).I've blogged about Mike Johnson.
You can read more about the contents of the book at the website linked above.
I have not received my copy yet, but I'm hoping the introduction is written by Harold Hamm. Or signed by him. Just joking.
It would be real cool if this book requires a second printing.

The following was sent to me by one of the editors. I don't know if it was meant for posting; if so, he will let me know, I'm sure:Table of Contents
