Developed just after the close of the Civil War, the Springfield Gas Machine was a unique commercial and domestic gas lighting system marketed for use in homes and businesses outside of a city's gas works. In addition to detailing preserved Springfield systems across the US, Donald W. Linebaugh uses newspapers and magazine articles, advertisements, patents, and even mail-order catalogues to tell the story of this one-of-a-kind unit.
