| Summary | "Dave Darrin's Second Year at Annapolis" by H. Irving Hancock is a novel written during the early 20th century. The story follows Midshipman David Darrin and his friend Dan Dalzell as they navigate the challenges of their second year at the United States Naval Academy. The narrative focuses on themes of honor, camaraderie, and personal growth against a backdrop of naval training and adventure. At the start of the book, the story dives into a critical incident involving Midshipman Pennington, who has succumbed to opium use, much to the dismay of his classmates, including Darrin and Dalzell. Darrin is portrayed as a natural leader, grappling with the moral implications of Pennington’s actions and the impact on their class honor. The opening establishes a tense atmosphere as Darrin and his friends make a concerted effort to help Pennington while also considering the broader consequences of his behavior. Darrin’s determination to uphold midshipman honor sets the stage for their personal growth and the various challenges they will face throughout the year.
