Iron Love by Marguerite Poland

Description

The year is 1913, the place a boys’ school in colonial South Africa. For every boy, the heart of the school is his own House, his Housemaster and his particular Hero. And for every newboy coming through the hallowed doors, there are two commandments. The first, Silence and Denial. The Not to fail at Footer. Validation lies in honoring these. At whatever the cost.
