[lightfusegetaway]

"Story of his career as told by himself."

One of the more colorful characters from the early days of the Pennsylvania oil industry tells of his high times. Late 1800's.

This book is a good read if you have any interest in the boomtown phenomenon or petroleum history.

Improvement over original Google Books download. Better formatting for the Sony Reader. Displays well on PRS-505, though text is not centered. Will eventually get a text-based version of this going.
