United States, 1860. Delivering the news across the great continent of North America was not easy. To provide a faster mail service, the Central Overland California & Pike's Peak Express Company, or Pony Express, was created. Be a rider on the Pony Express in this impressive graphic novel. Maps, timelines, glossaries, and indexes make these titles an exciting addition to classroom discussion. Graphic Planet is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO Publishing Group. Grades 3-6.
