Book Description
Excerpt from The Rise and Progress of the Standard Oil Company The constant reference in the text to authorities in the foot-notes will not, it is hoped, detract from the narrative. In a matter so much discussed as the subject of this history there seems no longer room for unverified opinion. And if verification seems sometimes too insistent, the impor tance of authenticating facts which too often have been loosely disputed should be sufficient excuse.
