"Cadet Days: A Story of West Point" by Charles King is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the journey of George "Pops" Graham, the son of a post surgeon, as he strives to secure a coveted appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point. Throughout the tale, readers accompany Geordie on his challenging path to become a cadet, facing obstacles including the intense competition for cadetships, the rigorous demands of military training, and his relationships with fellow cadets. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Geordie's determination to attend West Point despite the obstacles he faces in securing a cadetship. His interactions with Colonel Belknap and the comparisons to other candidates set the tone for the competitive environment. As the narrative unfolds, Geordie's adventurous past in the West is highlighted, detailing his upbringing among soldiers and Indians, which prepares him for the challenges ahead. The initial chapters effectively capture the excitement and trepidation of the life-changing transition to military academy life, where cadets are molded into future leaders of the army. The opening lays a solid foundation for Geordie's growth as he navigates the rigors of cadet life while forging bonds and facing challenges alongside his peers.
