The KESTRELS Series by Stanley Weston Mason
Has anyone else here read Stanley Weston Mason's 4-book 'KESTRELS' series (Brockhampton Press), starting with "KESTELS OVER THE BEACON" (1949)?

I have a copy of Kestrels Plot Adventure, but I'm afraid that I haven't read it yet, as I am one of these people who likes to read books in the correct order and unfortunately these books are not easy to find any more.

Good luck with finding those other 3 'Kestrels' titles, Tony.
Your deferring the reading until you've got the whole series is probably a good move as (in my opinion at least) the first book in the series is the best.
For others who might be interested, but who lack your skills in bibliographic research, the titles I'm aware of are:
‘Aurélien Arkadiusz’ in New Zealand
EDIT:
Thanks for the date on (The) Kestrels Plot Adventure, Tony. Always suspected that my dateless Spring Books edition was a later edition.
