I loved those books! I read each and every one of them. I have a set given to me by a friend of my Father.
Another favorite of my youth was "The Boy Allies" series. WWI stories about pairs of American youths who participated in every major battle of WWI with great valor. Fantasy, but great reads.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Just a preliminary look on Amazon....looks like they are free for your Kindle or iPad.
I just got “The Boy Allies Under The Sea”. Will look for more.
