- Summary
- "In 1860, the first rider set out on a trail from Missouri to California. He carried with him a special delivery - the first mail ever delivered by hand to the West. During the eleven-day trip he and many other men faced harsh weather, dangerous animals like buffalo and wolves and more, but nothing weakened their determination and courage."--dustjacket flap.
