Beschreibung:

"History of the Standard Oil Company," written by investigative journalist Ida Tarbell and published in 1904, was a pioneering work of muckraking that exposed the unethical practices and aggressive monopoly tactics of John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil Company. Tarbell's detailed and well-documented series, originally published as a series of articles in McClure's Magazine, significantly influenced public opinion and led to increased regulatory oversight and the eventual breakup of Standard Oil under antitrust laws.
