Rathborne's output is estimated to exceed 330 volumes, encompassing adventure tales, frontier narratives, and stories of exploration and heroism. His work was characterized by its fast-paced storytelling, moral undertones, and appeal to the imaginations of young readers, especially boys seeking tales of courage and action.
