Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from On the Overland Stage: Or Terry as a King Whip Cub
Both men sobered. SO did Terry and George. Yes, things indeed looked bad out East, in the States. Last fall Abraham Lincoln had been elected President of the United States - which was not bad, but good; and the Southern States that favored the keeping of slaves by anybody who wished to do so threatened to withdraw from the Union.
The great news Of Abraham Lincoln's election was carried by the Pony Express, from the Missouri River to California, miles, in eight days!
