I am trying to locate a source from which to purchace a series of books
called The Pathfinder Series. The main character was named Henry Ware.
The events take place roughly during the Revolutionary War era.

This was historical fiction written for youth/teens sometime before the
1940"s.

If anyone has any information about this series of books I would
certainly appreciate a reply.

Thanks

You might have the Series wrong.

Is this it?

"Altsheler's most famous, and successful, series is called The Young
Trailers. An eight book effort, it was enormously popular with boys and
girls from its initial printing in the early 1900s. It is set, naturally
enough, in Kentucky and environs during the American Revolution. It features
a youth (Henry Ware) and his comrades (Paul Cotter, Solomon Hyde, Tom Ross,
and Jim Hart) who emigrate to Kentucky from Virginia just as the war breaks
out. The series tells the relatively unknown story of what happened on the
western border during that war and is a very accurate portrayal of the
struggle to keep both the British and the tribes at bay while the main
battles were fought in the east. "
