- Summary
- "The Byzantine world of The Citadel is fully revealed in this account of Shannon Faulkner's attempt to become its first female cadet. In Glory's Shadow explores the history of a southern institution determined to preserve traditional lines of power and social influence while all around it America was changing.".
- "Manegold illuminates the course - historical, judicial and psychological - of Shannon's fight and uncovers an American drama, a clash between those who would preserve the rigid structures of the past and those trying to chart a new course in a nation remaking itself."--BOOK JACKET.
