Much has been told of the Pony Express, yet it was only in existence for 18 months. It came into being as a way of delivering the mail from the settled east to the unsettled west without having to wait for a ship to sail around South America or a wagon train to come across the continent. Fast riders, working in relays, could bring the mail to Sacramento in as little as ten days.
