He wrote of it in The Boo: "The year is 1963 and I speak from memory . I was standing in the sand at The Citadel beach house . All about me milled the bleating herd of freshmen who had survived the initial immersion into the system . During plebe week I had a senior put a cigarette out on my arm, fainted in exhaustion during a sweat party, and hung suspended from a wall pipe while some daring young sergeant held a sword beneath me. This, I reasoned, was evidence enough that I had made a serious error in my choice of colleges."~~An uncommon relic, with no original copies available in commerce, and no institutional holdings located, only reprints. Very Good binding.
