Summary "Dick Hamilton's Cadet Days; Or, The Handicap of a Millionaire's Son" by Howard R. Garis is a novel written in the early 20th century. This story follows the adventures of Dick Hamilton, a young millionaire, as he embarks on his military academy journey at Kentfield Academy. The narrative focuses on Dick's challenges in gaining acceptance among his peers and managing the perceived social handicap of his wealth while navigating life as a cadet. The opening of the novel introduces Dick Hamilton as he enjoys a summer camp with his friends before receiving a telegram from his father instructing him to return home immediately. This sets the stage for Dick to fulfill his mother’s wishes to attend a military academy, emphasizing the expectations placed upon him regarding discipline and social integration despite his wealth. As Dick arrives at the academy, he faces a cold reception from other cadets, particularly from Ray Dutton, who influences others against him. The story begins to explore themes of friendship, prejudice, and self-discovery, hinting at Dick's determination to prove himself beyond his affluent background.
