The First Overland Mail is a historical non-fiction book written by Robert E. Pinkerton. The book chronicles the journey of the first overland mail delivery from St. Joseph, Missouri, to San Francisco, California, in 1860. The author provides a detailed account of the challenges faced by the Pony Express riders, including harsh weather conditions, hostile Native American tribes, and treacherous terrain. Pinkerton also delves into the political and economic factors that led to the creation of the Pony Express and its eventual demise.

Overall, The First Overland Mail is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in American history, the Wild West, or the development of mail delivery systems in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
