"Dick Prescott spends a pleasant summer at home on his furlough, then he goes back to West Point -- a Second Classman. There follows another year of work and play. An accident in the riding hall sends Dick to the Cadet hospital with an injured spine that threatens to put an end to his cadet days. His greatest joy comes on Commencement day when the medical examiners tell him that there is no question about his full recovery"--Dust jacket flap.
