They’re Off! The Story of the Pony Express
In 1860, with North and South about to be divided by war, East and West were united through an extraordinary venture—the Pony Express. Over the course of ten days in April, eighty riders and five hundred horses delivered mail between California and Missouri—a mission that took three weeks by stagecoach. The spirit of the brave riders and their ponies is captured perfectly in Cheryl Harness’s lively, brightly illustrated, and information-filled account. 32 pages. Paperback.
