Extractions: ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY INTRODUCTION The historiography of the Pony Express can be broken down into the following two general categories: 1) primary resources (which include archival manuscript material, contemporary newspapers, traveler journals, diaries, autobiographies, and reminisces of people directly or indirectly associated with the Pony Express); 2) secondary historical resources (which include undocumented historical narratives, articles, and other research efforts, as well scholarly research). The following annotated bibliographical essay will guide the reader/researcher through the more significant resources that pertain to the history and understanding of the importance of the Pony Express. For additional resource materials see the full bibliography at the end of this manuscript. PRIMARY RESOURCES ARCHIVAL MANUSCRIPT MATERIAL In Missouri, the researcher should start at the St. Joseph Museum in St. Joseph. The museum's library has a good collection of secondary historical resources pertaining to the Pony Express, including photographs, maps, and slides. The St. Joseph Museum also operates the Pony Express Museum (renovated former stables of the Pony Express), which exhibits and displays material that illustrates the creation, operation, management, and termination of the enterprise. In addition to visiting the St. Joseph and Pony Express Museum, the researcher should turn to the holdings of the Western Historical Manuscript Collection of the University of Missouri at Columbus for a few primary resources. The University of Missouri possesses an original copy of the "Pony Express Edition" of the St.

Traveling This Backway: To follow the Pony Express Trail, head west from the town of Fairfield (located west of Utah Lake) through Faust, over Lookout Summit, to pass Simpson Springs and Fish Springs. The road then travels through the Snake Valley to Callao and northwest to Ibapah. There are no services along this 133-mile Backway. Allow five to six hours travel time with interpretive stops. Road Conditions: The first five miles and the last two miles of this "trail" are asphalt. In between lie 126 miles of maintained gravel and dirt road. The route is open throughout the year, however, the best and safest seasons are spring and fall. There are no vehicle restrictions, but four-wheel drive vehicles with chains, tow rope or winch are recommended after heavy rain or snow.

Extractions: Converse Award to Roxane and Steve Wilson Over the past several years there have been some exciting innovations in the study of fossil mammals using techniques from chemistry. While I was on my sabbatical at the University of Utah I was fortunate to learn some of these techniques to study the ancient ecology, climate, local environments, and changes that have occurred over the past 20 million years from Florida and elsewhere in North America. During the process of photosynthesis, plants fix carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and soil and combine the carbon in different ways. Most of the world's plants, including trees, shrubs, and high-latitude and high-elevation (cool growing season) grasses photosynthesize carbon into 3-chain compounds and are called C3 plants . On land, C3 plants represent about 90 % of the plant biomass. In contrast, most temperate and tropical grasses and some arid-adapted shrubs photosynthesize carbon into 4-chained compounds (

Extractions: Announcements This is a very exciting phase in the development of the FlaMNH. Over the next decade these changes will provide new space for public exhibits, including a major emphasis on paleontology. I anticipate being involved in this new initiative and envision the opportunity to place on exhibit some new and fascinating fossil horse specimens for the public to appreciate. Another major initiative on the UF campus is the newly established College of Natural Resources and the Environment. This is a new concept in university colleges that cuts across traditional university disciplines, combining such previously disparate fields as the natural and social sciences, agriculture, public relations/communications, engineering, law, urban and regional planning, and the FlaMNH. Related to the FlaMNH, our faculty hopes to teach courses and provide internship experiences in systematics and biodiversity. This college will begin at the undergraduate level and then expand to include graduate programs. In March I learned that I was awarded a Fulbright Senior Fellowship for 1993-4. This will provide me the opportunity to live in La Paz, Bolivia where I will conduct research on fossil mammals from the Andes at the National Museum of Natural History and teach a course (in Spanish) on geology and paleontology at the University of San Andres. This opportunity will give me many new experiences that I will be able to share with readers of
