A brisk salute to courage, duty, and the making of a gentleman. Dick Prescott's Second Year at West Point invites readers to walk the dusty parade ground of a turn-of-century academy and discover what makes a true soldier's life worthy of pride. This restored edition offers more than a reprint: it recovers the spirit of juvenile fiction and turns West Point into a vivid setting for adventure fiction and character-building.

The book blends Horatio Alger-style enterprise with genuine school-life drama, making it a compelling read for both casual readers and collectors of classic literature. Its student-life focus, deep respect for training, and triumph of perseverance will resonate with those seeking school library picks and enduring stories of character. Historically, the work stands as a window into early 20th-century American youth, offering a respectful portrait of west point life and a cultural treasure for readers interested in turn-of-century america. Out of print for decades, Alpha Editions now returns this title restored for today's audiences and future generations. More than a reprint, it is a collectible piece that honours the tradition of military adventure novels and keeps alive a venerable West Point setting for new generations to admire.
