"The Border Watch" closes the series which began with "The Young Trailers," and which was continued successively in "The Forest Runners," "The Keepers of the Trail," "The Eyes of the Woods," "The Free Rangers," "The Riflemen of the Ohio," and "The Scouts of the Valley." All the eight volumes deal with the fortunes and adventures of two boys, Henry Ware and Paul Cotter, and their friends Shif'less Sol Hyde, Silent Tom Ross and Long Jim Hart, in the early days of Kentucky. The action moves over a wide area, from New Orleans in the South to Lake Superior in the North, and from the Great Plains in the West to the land of the Iroquois in the East.

I am a life long fan of the author. I began reading his books early in my life and only now have been able to find some of his books to read. This book lives up to all of the rest of this series and I highly recommend the book. Altsheler keeps to historical accuracy and still give you an excellent story. I am now 71 years old and still I am liking what he wrote about the frontier during the Revolutionary War.
