Local philatelist Stan Grove traces the early history of Fremont County and some of its leading figures through a unique and extensive assemblage of postal artifacts, compassing the South Pass gold rush days, the establishment of military forts and Indian agencies, and the exploreing of small post offices through the early 1900s. This history is contextualized by a broader sampling of Wyoming postal-history items.
