West Like Lightning

The Brief, Legendary Ride of the Pony Express

Jim DeFelice
As their nation stood on the brink of Civil War, Americans were captivated by a new postal service that, for just 18 months, carried mail almost 2,000 miles across the continent using a relay of daring young horseback riders. In this book the coauthor of American Sniper explores the origins and development of the Pony Express, debunks myths that quickly grew up around it and considers its lasting relevance as a symbol of American enterprise. Slightly off-mint and felt-tip mark on upper trimmed edge. American-cut pages.
