The Pony Express of Excellence,
By Bobbi L. Starwalt (Ottawa, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pony Express (Cornerstones of Freedom) (Paperback)
I really enjoyed this book. I found the book to have a complete history of the Pony Express. I have recently been working on a web quest and it has been a wonderful resource of information. It includes illustrated pictures, maps, biographies, and legends. I found this book to be exciting, not dull like other informational books! I would recommend this books to all parents, children, and teachers.
