| Summary | "The Riverpark Rebellion" by Homer Greene is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the cadets of Riverpark Academy, particularly focusing on Lieutenant Horace E. Brightly and his trajectory through military discipline, rivalry, and rebellion. The narrative explores themes of integrity, peer pressure, and the complexities of youthful emotions as the boys navigate their school lives. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the disciplined world of Riverpark Academy, where cadets are trained in military conduct under the watchful eye of Colonel Silsbee. The chapter highlights the challenges faced by Brightly, who is struggling with feelings of frustration and humiliation after being overlooked for a captaincy, leading to a fight with Cadet Belcher and growing tensions among the students. As discontent brews, a spirit of rebellion begins to take hold of the cadets, culminating in the formation of the "Order of the Black Star," suggesting an impending clash between youthful defiance and the strict order of their academy.
