Description

When Kevin, Emma, Lucy, & Tomas visit the Pony Express exhibit at the Nat. Postal Museum, they are drawn in by the video featuring “Boston” Upson, one of the riders on the pony express. Kevin turns away from the video screen to discover that he has become Upson, waiting for the mail outside of Friday’s Station. Before long, another rider arrives to give Kevin the mail & some important news -- the first shots have been fired at Fort Sumter, & the Civil War has begun. Kevin must get the news & the mail to the next rider. It won’t be easy; as he is heading right into the danger of wolves, a blizzard, & a flooded river. Authenticated by the curators of the Smithsonian Institution, so you can experience the adventures as if you were really there. Full-color illustrations.
