1929. Winkler writes that John D. Rockefeller and his Standard Oil
Trust have provoked a literature and litigation of their own. In
this overwhelming mass of material, Rockefeller the Man is but a
shadowy myth. This study seeks chiefly to illumine a rare and
astonishing personality. It includes, therefore, only such portions
of our subject's long and serried business career as seem essential
to our purpose. Contents: A Strange Pilgrim and His Son; A Pious
Youth Gets a Flying Start; A Godly Young Man Strikes Oil; A Refiner
Marches Toward Monopoly; A Business Genius Makes the World Pay
Tribute; The Malevolent Trust-Raking In a Billion; The Benevolent
Trust-Ladling Out the Billion; John D. Jr., a Character Sketch;
John D., III, the Clan's Future Chieftain, an Intimate Portrait;
and John D. at Ninety. See other titles by this author available
