Synopsis

Treasure Express, first published in 1938, is an exciting account of the heady early days of the Wells Fargo offices and its paddlewheel, stagecoach, and express services. The book chronicles the story of Henry Wells (1805-78) and William Fargo (1818-81) who incorporated Wells, Fargo & Company in California in 1852, providing express services from the gold fields to financial centers of the East. The life-or-death struggles of the drivers and guards against bandits and outlaws as they fought to build a viable transportation and delivery network. Detailed too, are some of the most infamous robberies and attacks (and attackers) on the intrepid drivers. Indexed and illustrated throughout with photographs.
