William Rockefeller had crushed many rivals in the oil, copper, banking, and railroad industries. No one had been able to resist against his power and money. That is, no one until Oliver Lamora. While battling business rivals and government investigators, Rockefeller never wavered from trying to crush his poor mountain-man opponent. And Oliver resisted in every way he knew how. He was a man of no financial means, but possessed the heart and grit of a pioneer. Here was a man who would not be cowed by the Rockefeller might. Lamora fought to preserve a treasured way of life. When Rockefeller's money, power, and influence were brought to bear, it turned into a fight for Oliver's survival, and a man's right to live free in the place of his choosing. This is the story of Oliver Lamora, an Adirondack original.
