1865ref. 377852Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott & Co 1865. Second edition revised and enlarged. 153pp. 12mo. Publisher's brown cloth blocked in blind spine lettered in gilt. Second edition revised and enlarged. 153pp. 12mo. The second edition considerably enlarged published the same year as the 95-page first edition. An interesting work on the oil fields of Pennsylvania Ohio and West Virginia with stories of early oils wells and their owners and how oil companies operate. The first oil well in the United States was drilled by E. L. Drake in Oil Creek Pennsylvania near Titusville in 1859 and America's first oil rush ensued peaking in the late 1860s.

"This is a good history of the oil development thus far in Pennsylvania with much shorter accounts of the West Virginia Southern Ohio and Kentucky regions with a day-by-day account of a trip through the Pennsylvania oil region" Streeter.
