Butterfield's Overland Mail Co. as REPORTED in the Arkansas Newspapers of 1858-1861 - Bob Owen Crossman

Descriere Butterfield's Overland Mail Co. as REPORTED in the Arkansas Newspapers of 1858-1861 - Bob Owen Crossman

The newspapers of Arkansas did an amazing job of covering the news around Butterfield's Overland Mail Company. Frequently the newspaper editors would draw their information from their exchange of newspapers across the country to bring to their subscribers the most accurate and comprehensive description of facts as possible. \n\n This book greatly expands my two previous books, Butterfield's Overland Mail Co. Stagecoach Trail Across Arkansas 1858-1861, and Butterfield's Overland Mail Co. use of STEAMBOATS to Deliver Mail and Passengers Across Arkansas 1858-1861. \n\n While in these two previous books, I only included brief excerpts from the Arkansas newspapers of 1857-1861, in this book I have let the newspaper reporters tell the story in their own words. \n\n It has been difficult, but I have limited my interpretive comments to a brief title I've assigned each article. In this way, today's reader can immerse themselves into the world of the citizens of Arkansas. \n\n While the purpose of my research of the Overland Mail was to satisfy my personal curiosity, hopefully this collection of my research will also make a contribution to the efforts of officially recognizing the route of Butterfield's Overland Mail Co. as a National Historic Trail. \n\n \n \n\n \n \n\n
