Spindletop boom days

"Here, in 328 contemporary photographs, is an eyewitness record of the early days of the Texas oil industry. Portrayals of oil-field folk - drillers, roustabouts, tool dressers, and tycoons - portray how the people lived and worked. Walter Rundell's text provides the historical setting for the photographs, focusing always on the human element. This combination of pictures and text presents a vivid social history of early Texas oil and its tremendous impact on Texas and its people."--BOOK JACKET.
