I think they published both hardcover and softcover series. |

Edit: Although now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure those were all hardbacks. Not to force you to admit your age, but what decade are we looking at?

First of all, please forgive my tardiness in replying but my PC had an almighty crash while viewing the Mars Rover video elsewhere on the site. All is now well.
Thank you everyone for the time and trouble you have all gone to.
Unfortunately, none of the suggestions has borne fruit but I still live in hope of finding the series by one means or another.
I only became aware of the books being an American publication when I read a web article about them a few years ago.
To the best of my recollection there was no mention of that on the cover or in the title.
Lastly....
Showing my age now, it would have been the second half of the sixties when they were about.
