The Last Ride of the Pony Express

The Pony Express was a 10-day gallop that carried the mail from Missouri to San Francisco. Due to its prohibitive expense, it lasted less than two years, but even now, more than a century and a half later, it is still a household name. In 2019, author and horseman Will Grant set out to do the trek himself, albeit it at a much slower pace. He wrote about that journey in his book "The Last Ride of the Pony Express: My 2,000-mile horseback journey into the Old West." Listen in!
