"Authentic, compelling...Anyone interested in what really goes on inside the high-pressure, high-testosterone leadership lab that produces some of the nation`s finest Army officers will enjoy this book." - Library Journal

Gail O`Sullivan Dwyer graduated from the United States Military Academy at West Point in 1981--only the second Academy class to have women among its members. Funny, poignant and insightful, this insider`s view of what it was like to be a cadet--and a female one to boot--at the nation`s most storied academic institution will inform, delight...and even make you laugh out loud.

The author retired as a lieutenant colonel from the U.S. Army Reserves and has spent the past sixteen years serving with West Point admissions as a liaison officer.

"Highly recommended for all young Americans interested in becoming West Point Army officers."
- COL Michael Jones, U.S. Army (Ret), West Point Class of 1970, Former Director of Admissions, USMA
