500    "This Dover edition, first published in 2003, is an 
       unabridged republication of the "briefer version" of the 
       work edited by David M. Chalmers, and published in 1966 as
       a Harper Torchbook by Harper & Row, Publishers, New York. 
       For this edition, the text was cut approximately in half 
       and the appendices eliminated. The complete work 
       originally appeared as a series of articles in McClure's 
       Magazine from 1902 to 1904, and was published in book form,
       in two volumes by The Macmillan Company in 1904"--

520    Journalist Ida Tarbell wrote serialized stories from 1902 
       to 1904 exposingn the Standard Oil Company monopoly and 
       the role of owner John D. Rockefeller in creating 
       commercialized American ideals and materialistic values. 
       Tarbell describes Rockefeller's business practices, 
       personal characteristics, and physical appearance. This 
       "muckraking" form of journalism led to regulation of 
       Standard Oil.
