Description
Excerpt from The Story of Oil
Much more might have been made of the spec tacular side of the industry, but that is, on the whole, the aspect which has been most exploited, and its incorporation here would have been at the expense of other less familiar aspects. Little has been said here about the moral and legal aspects of Standard Oil activities. If, on the contrary, much more than the usual amount of credit is given to that company, it is merely a result of trying to do justice where but one side of the ques tion is ordinarily considered.
