Story
A crucial communication link from the end of the telegraph lines in the east to Sacramento, California. A series of relay stations were established with fresh horses so the rider could get fresh mounts all along the route. The riders just changed mounts and went as fast as possible...rarely stopping their daredevil rides even to sleep and eat. It took immense courage and perseverance on the part of the riders and the relay station personnel and took about 10 days.

Story
An accessible yet well researched and detailed account by Glenn D. Bradley of the operation of the line known as the "Pony Express", that lasted for about 16 months before being replaced by the telegraph. A mail route became an imperative in order to connect the eastern U.S. with the growing West Coast following the gold rush of California, the lumber camps, and the various needs because of the settling of the western frontier.

Story
In 1860, starting a mail route became a must in order to connect the eastern U.S. with the growing west coast following the gold rush of California, the lumber camps, and the various needs because of the settling of the western frontier. An accessible yet thorough account of the operation of the line known as the Pony Express, that lasted for about 16 months before being replaced by the telegraph. This work is meticulous yet manages to convey the entrepreneurial and dangerous atmosphere of the time (repelling of Indian attacks and overall tough working conditions).
