- Although the Pony Express operated for only eighteen months, during 1860 and 1861, it has become an enduring legend in the American imagination. di Certo traces the history of "the Pony", beginning with the earliest attempts to set up relay mail services in the west and ending with the establishment of telegraph service across the country. He provides detailed information about the route of the Pony Express, the stations along the way, and the Pony riders. Many stories of heroic adventures are included.
