The Last Ride of the Pony Express
by Will Grant
320 pages, Hardback, Copyright 2023
This book boldly illuminates America's mysterious and complex connection to the iconic Pony Express. With two horses, cowboy and journalist Will Grant takes us on an epic and authentic horseback journey into the modern West on an adventure of a lifetime.
Grant captures the spirit of the West in a way that few writers have. Along with rich encounters with the ranchers, farmers, historians, and businessmen who populate the trail, his exploits on horseback offer an intimate portrait of how the West has evolved from the rough-and-tumble nineteenth century to the present, and it's written with such intimacy that you'll feel as though you're riding right alongside him. The result is an extraordinary portrait of the treacherous and at times thrilling landscape of the known and unknown American West and the people who inhabit it.
