The story of the Pony Express represents one of the most romantic chapters in the history of the American West. For a brief 19-month period, daring young couriers raced the 1,966 miles between St. Joseph, Missouri, and Sacramento, California, relaying mail and telegraph messages in as little as 10 days. The Pony Express riders carried 34,753 pieces of mail across what was the most desolate and dangerous terrain in North America. Today, you can relive the adventure while retracing the route with The Traveler's Guide to the Pony Express Trail. Author and photographer Joe Bensen describes every section of the trail from Missouri to California, and detailed maps and photographs complement the narrative. Eight pages of spectacular color photographs show the dramatic scenery and fun things to do along the way. Use The Traveler's Guide to the Pony Express Trail to plan a thoroughly entertaining and educational trip and to enjoy a historic American adventure.
