In 1899, a brand-new invention rattled down the dirt roads of Carroll County, Maryland-a post office on wheels! Postal worker Edwin W. Shriver had a vision: free mail delivery for farmers. But there was a hitch. The farmers didn't want it. Their wives did. And the battle of the mail was on.
Determined to prove his idea, Shriver loaded up his horse-drawn postal wagon and hit the road. He faced grumbling farmers, a pig with postage, a mailbox guarded by a snake, and even gunfire. But no matter the challenge, the Mail on Wheels kept rolling.
Based on actual events and packed with humor, history, and heart, this lively tale brings to life one man's fight for progress--and the unforgettable first journey of rural free delivery in American. Will the mail make it through? Or will the farmers put an end to the whole experiment?
Find out in this fascinating, true story of determination, innovation, and a bit of postal mayhem.
