Über diesen Titel

What happens when the wickedest man in the world arrives in the wickedest place on the globe? It’s February of 1866 and the oil boom of Northwestern Pennsylvania is in high gear. Ben Hogan, welcome to Pithole, Pennsylvania. The discovery of oil and the birth of the oil industry created several boom towns some of which later became ghost towns. The most famous oil ghost town in Pennsylvania was Pithole, and it was populated with many a scoundrel and fallen woman. In this episode, we meet some of them, including the most famous of all – Ben Hogan and French Kate. This is the third episode in the 3-part series on the Discovery of Oil and the History of the Oil Regions of Pennsylvania. In this episode we also have repeat appearances by Frank Tarbell and his daughter Ida Tarbell from the first two episodes.
