Welcome back all history fans to the Giants of History Podcast!

In this fifth and final episode of our John D. Rockefeller series, we explore the rise of Standard Oil from a single refinery operation to one of the largest companies in the history of American business.  But it was one event in particular, in 1872, which truly launched Standard Oil and Rockefeller to the pinnacle of power.  We hope you enjoy!
