The Story of the Pony Express

by Glenn Bradley

Bradley's excellent story of the Pony Express is enhanced by this new information which is the result of Tom Crew's research about the little known "overland" route.

Tom Crews created the Pony Express Home Station in 1992 to follow the Trail of the Pony Express from the past, to the present and into the future. This award winning web site provides the most comprehensive collection of Pony Express information available on the internet today.

Tom's interest in the Pony Express started when the Contra Costa County Historical Society asked him to research the overland route of the Pony Express between Sacramento and Oakland. His story, "The Ride of Thomas Bedford," in the introduction of this book is a direct result of this original research of this route.

The price for this book is $9.95. All California Residents please add $0.82 (8.25%) Sales Tax per book.
