The Gentleman Cadet

Among the many books published by Alfred Drayson was "The Gentleman Cadet". A fictionalized account of his time as a cadet at the Woolwich Military Academy, I think aimed at children. The book is out of copyright and available in its entirety here on Google Books.

Shown below are a selection of pages from the book (taken from the Google Books PDF file), including some illustrations of scenes in the book (the illustrations are by C.J. Staniland).
