by Peter Greene (Author)
Northwest Pennsylvania's oil region is known for the many tales surrounding the birth and growth of the petroleum industry, but there's much more to tell. The Venango County area was a pre-Revolution frontier and a front row seat for the Whiskey Rebellion before settling in to become the embodiment of American small town life, both in the age in which that life typified America, and in the era in which the city left the small town behind. This volume collects writing from regional columnist Peter Greene. Light, witty, fun, and informative, it opens a window on a special part of American life.
