Query: Wow!

I have read most of Conroy's books, and I have highly enjoyed his style of writing in each of his works. "The Lords of Discipline" is simply a masterpiece. The story takes place at the Citadel in Charleston, SC. Will McLean, is a basketball player who, despite having mixed feelings about the institute, has established three extremely close friends and has found a niche as the Captain of the basketball team his senior year. Things start going astray when he is asked by "The Bear", the disciplinary Dean, to watch out for the first Black cadet to be allowed to enroll in the school (in the mid 1960s). In trying to protect the young man from unjust hazing and torture, Will comes upon a secret organization known as "The Ten". His knowledge of the organization puts him and his roomates in great danger, as Will faces challenges that nearly break him. This book is not only beautifully written, but is Conroy's most intense. It is certainly one of the best books I have ever read!
