"Wyoming: The Paradox of Plenty" was released in late 2022 and was written by Dave Freudenthal, a Democratic two-term governor who served in office from 2003-2011. It examines the state's tax structure, economic and political history, and how mineral extraction and the energy industry grew to play an outsized role as the state's major economic driver. It also calls into question the notion of Wyoming being an independent, self-sufficient state, among other topics.
