The Pony Express in American History

(4) 4-6 In American History series. Beginning with a summary of events leading up to the conflic, Gettysburg then provides a day-by-day account of the battle. The blandly written Pony Express describes what led to this mail delivery system and explains its legacy. Worth's rather unfocused survey discusses nineteenth-century expansion and its consequences. The books include excerpts from source documents and archival photos and reproductions, which are unexpectional in the Gaines and Worth volumes. Bib., ind.
