This book is in my top ten favorite books. The author has a gift with words that makes the story sing. The story concerns four young men at a military college. This is not a topic that I would normally read but the skill of the author lifts the work to new heights. The four young men go from yearmen year hazing to senior year tragedy in this long book. Pat Conroy may arguably be the best living American writer and this book is a wonderful example of his work.
great book

I bought the book for my daughter who is a gradurate from the Citadel(2003). She was looking to get it for herself so instead I bought it for a Christmas gift.
