Seventy Years on the Frontier

"Seventy Years on the Frontier" by Alexander Majors is a memoir revealing Western American history. The book covers some interesting anecdotes about Alexander Major's life. The man who could in the face of all dangers and obstacles originate and carry to success a line of freighter wagons, a mail route from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and a Pony Express, flying at the utmost speed of a hare through the land, was no ordinary individual, as can be well understood. And such a man Alexander Majors was. He won success; and today, on the verge of fourscore years, lives over again in his book the thrilling scenes in his own life and in the lives of others.
