1909. Tarbell is best known as being one of the original muckrakers
for her role in her book, The History of the Standard Oil Company,
played in helping to shut down the Standard Oil monopoly. She is
also recognized for the Life of Abraham Lincoln. This small volume
begins: Kindhearted? Mr. Lincoln kindhearted? I don't believe a man
ever lived who'd rather seen everybody happy and peaceable than
Abraham Lincoln. He never could stand it to have people sufferin'
or not gettin' what they wanted. Time and time again I've seen him
go taggin' up street here in this town after some youngster that
was blubberin' because he couldn't have what wa'n't good for him.
Seemed as if he couldn't rest till that child was smilin' again.
