"In Pat Conroy's iconic 1980 novel The Lords of Discipline, protagonist Will McLean vows to write the history of his military college. Conroy's classmate John Warley, '67, has deftly achieved that in his modern history of The Citadel. Interwoven with theremembrances of alumni, faculty and college and community leaders, Warley's narrative account is an enlightening chronicle of change over time-a microcosm of our larger American experience-as told from the vantage point of one who wears the ring."--Jonathan Haupt, executive director, Pat Conroy Literary Center On March 20, 1843, twenty young men from South Carolina assembled on Marion Square in Charleston to begin the educational experiment called The Citadel.
