Includes:

The Boy Pilot of the Lakes

The Great Lakes!  These mighty freshwater, inland seas have been the scene of many exciting adventures and have claimed the lives of hundreds of brave sailors.  Young Nat Morton, wharf rat on the Chicago waterfront, wants nothing more than to work on one of the great ships that ply the waters of the lakes.  He finally gets his chance when he risks his life to save an old ship`s captain who has fallen overboard, but soon finds that many adventures--and many dangers--lie ahead.  Take the helm with Nat as he works his exciting way from wharf rat to boat pilot in The Boy Pilot of the Lakes.

 The Boy from the Ranch

Bradner knew his way around the ranch.  He was a top hand with a lariat or a six-shooter and could stick like a leech to the saddle of a plunging, bucking bronco.  But the biggest challenge of his life awaits him when his rancher dad calls upon Roy to leave the western prairie and journey to faraway New York City.  The Bradner family has business in the big city too, and it`s not going well.  Crooked wheeler-dealers, men of influence and power, have their eyes on the Bradner property and will stop at nothing--not even murder--to get what they want.  Will Roy`s western savvy be equal to the task of defeating these crooks and protecting his family?

 Cowboy Dave

Young Dave Carson, heir to the sprawling Bar U ranch, is no stranger to trouble.  Life on the range in the late 1800`s was a series of challenges that only the strong and resolute could endure.  A cowboy`s life meant hard work, danger and a large dose of the unexpected.  Ride the prairie with Dave and his cowboy pals as they contend with stampedes, prairie fires, fistfights and the plots of hostile neighbors.  Adventure is always just over the hill when you hit the saddle beside Cowboy Dave!

 Jack of the Pony Express

"Orphans preferred!" That`s what the Help Wanted ad for the original Pony Express said. It wasn`t easy to be a Pony Express rider. Every day, brave young men took their lives in their hands and defied the burning sun or icy blizzards, rough mountain trails, highwaymen and hostile Indians to get the mail through on time. Listen to Uncle Rick tell about those hair-raising times and ride with  young Jack through the western mountains on the Pony Express!

 Airship Andy

It was the early 1920`s, in the infancy of air travel.  Airplanes were called airships and pilots were known as aeronauts.  The pilots of those days were brave men, daring to climb the heavens in fragile craft with no radios, no altimeters and--no parachutes. 

Zoom off into adventure with Andy Nelson, the intrepid young pilot.  Ride with him as he contends with harsh weather, treacherous enemies and the constant prospect of unexpected disaster high in the sky.  So much is depending on the outcome of the great "aeroplane" race.  Can Andy win?  Will he even be able to escape from his adversaries and reach the aerodrome in time to compete?  Take a flight into the past and ride the wind with Airship Andy!
