It operated less than two years. It lost an enormous amount of money. But the Pony Express delivered the mail across a continent at a critical time and captured the imagination of people all over the world like few events in the history of the American West.
On the 150th anniversary of its founding, William E. Hill tells the story of the Pony Express and takes us on a tour of the 2,000-mile route--now a National Historic Trail.
William Hill is the author of several books on western trails, including The Oregon Trail, Yesterday and Today, The Lewis and Clark Trail, Yesterday and Today and The Santa Fe Trail, Yesterday and Today, all published by Caxton Press. He has devoted many years and traveled thousands of miles collecting material for his guides.
