This four-volume series provides elementary and junior-high students with adventure stories about the old west that contain an element of mystery and intrigue. Each novel focuses upon the adventures and trials of a young boy growing up in California in the 1860's shortly after the Gold Rush had lost most of its momentum. Readers discover as they move through the pages that life itself is something of a mystery, and that making honorable choices is not always easy or convenient. The tone and content of each story is rich, engaging, and consistently wholesome without coming across as stuffy or moralizing. The novels contain print that is easy-to-read, but each volume contains only a modest number of black-and-white illustrations. 144 pgs, pb. ~ Mike
