| Summary | "Dick Prescott's Second Year at West Point" by H. Irving Hancock is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. It follows the journey of Dick Prescott and his friends as they move beyond their plebe year at the United States Military Academy, West Point, into their second year, grappling with the inherent challenges of cadet life, including friendships, responsibilities, and the culture of hazing. At the start of the book, the narrative introduces the three friends, Prescott, Holmes, and Anstey, who are adapting to their new status as yearlings, enjoying a break from the harsh realities of plebe life. The opening chapters depict their afternoon routine and discuss their responsibilities while hinting at the rules and social dynamics at play among the cadets, including the light-hearted yet serious discussions regarding hazing. As Prescott navigates the challenges of leadership and camaraderie among his peers, the groundwork is laid for the humorous and tense situations that will arise, especially with the expectation of new visitors from home and the upcoming social events at the academy.
