Description: In 1800 Butler County was frontier country. Butler County History begins then. Pictorially and editorially, it explains Butler County history from the arrival of German, English and Irish immigrants to the present. There are few who will remember that an automobile built in Butler fifty years (from the current date of this volume), traveled fifty to sixty miles on a gallon of gasoline. Butler County produced oil. The British Austin and the Bantam were built in a part of a plant now owned by Pullman -Standard. The fascinating Austin Bantam story is presented in this volume. The story of wire rope, oil, coal, farming, railroads, manufacturing, amusement parks, trolleys, public buildings, communities' personalities and much more is told in pictures.
