Summary

"On Guard: Mark Mallory's Celebration" by Upton Sinclair is a story about a young cadet's journey at West Point Military Academy. Cadet Mark Mallory becomes known for his brave fight against the hazing that upperclassmen inflict on new cadets. Fueled by a letter from a friend about similar struggles at Annapolis, Mark and his friends, including the memorable "Texas," unite to challenge the harsh traditions of the academy. Together, they form strong bonds, plan clever strategies, and work to create a more respectful environment within the rigid military school.
