  New Georgia Encyclopedia: Pat Conroy (b. 1945)
In 1999 Conroy was presented with the inaugural Stanley W. Lindberg Award for significant contributions to the literary heritage of Georgia.
In Conroy's prefatory note it is identified more generally as "the military school as it has evolved in America." A staunch individualist like other Conroy heroes, McLean finds himself in fierce opposition to "The Ten," a conspiratorial group of fellow cadets appointed to enforce and perpetuate the institute's policy of intimidation, prejudice, and harassment.
Because one of the major obstacles to the achievement of individual freedom is the traditional definition of masculinity, Conroy's males must frequently depend upon females (loving mothers, sympathetic sisters, understanding lovers) as saviors who assist the males in discovering and developing the feminine side of their personalities.
