    • Résumé :
      In 1860, just a year after Drake's historic first oil well, photographer John Mather arrived in Titusville, Pennsylvania, determined to capture the burgeoning oilfields, one glass negative at a time. From his makeshift darkrooms - one on a creek barge, another strapped to his wagon - he risked life and limb to preserve the history of the nascent petroleum industry. General Charles Miller, alongside his wife, Adelaide, tirelessly cultivated relationships with the titans of this new era, becoming a major player himself. Even Andrew Carnegie took notice, only to withdraw when Miller's personal indiscretions threatened his reputation.

This is the story of how a rough-and-tumble stretch of Oil Creek in rural Pennsylvania fueled the world's oil lamps, machinery, trains, and, eventually, automobiles....
