The History of the Standard Oil Company: Volume 1 of 2

Written by journalist Ida Tarbell in 1904, The History of the Standard Oil Company was an expos#65533; of the Standard Oil Company, run at that time by oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller, the richest figure in America's history. Originally serialized in 19 parts in McClure's magazine, the book was a seminal example of muckraking (known today as "investigative journalism") and inspired many other journalists to write about trusts. Trusts were large businesses that (in the absence of strong antitrust law in the 19th century) attempted to gain monopolies in various industries. The History of the Standard Oil Company was credited with hastening the breakup of Standard Oil, which came about in 1911. This is the full and complete digital version of both volumes, plus all appendices, illustrations, charts, tables, and footnotes. A truly fascinating work.

Written over 100 years ago, The Life of Abraham Lincoln is Ida Tarbell's famous collection of reminiscences of this great man by his contemporaries as were then living. To facilitate the work, all persons possessing or knowing of Lincoln material were asked through the McClure's Magazine to communicate with the editors, S. S. McClure and J. S. Phillips. The response was immediate and amazing. Hundreds of persons from all parts of the country replied. The author wrote thousands of letters and traveled thousands of miles to collect the material. The work thus became one in which the whole country cooperated. It is Lincoln the man, as seen by his fellows and revealed by his own acts and words, that the author has tried to so picture.

Cleveland oil tycoon John D. Rockefeller formed the Standard Oil Company of Ohio in 1870. Over the next four decades, Rockefeller turned his company into a behemoth, systematically driving his competitors out of business or buying them outright. His vast fortune made him one of the nation's most powerful men, but his private empire was nearly undone by the tireless journalism of a single, determined woman. Published in 1904, Ida Tarbell's The History of the Standard Oil Company exposed Rockefeller's monopolistic tactics to the public, eventually resulting in the company's dismantling in 1911. Yet Tarbell's work is more than simply a monumental piece of reporting; it is a deft, engrossing portrait of business in America―both its virtues and excesses.
