5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent photo history of corps life up until 1984., June 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Aggies: Life in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M (Hardcover)

The book is a photo history of life in the corps from 1980-1982. It shows the strict and unique life in the Cadet Corps as it was up until 1984 when changes were made. It focuses on the outfit Squadron Two and the traditions that make being an Aggie special. It's tough and challenging, but worth every minute.

This review is from: Aggies: Life in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M (Hardcover)

Aggies is a book I read a review about in an old Advocate and had searched for year after year. I finally found it and purchased it for a lot more than the 20 dollar original price. I am pleased with it as the book was in mint shape, had an inscription from the author/photographer inside, and was very hot. Lots of sexy men in great shots, all dressed but very interesting and erotic. Great book, tho very costly.

4.0 out of 5 stars Neat little book - really brings back memories, July 8, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Aggies: Life in the Corps of Cadets at Texas A&M (Hardcover)

Lots of black and white pictures of different Corps functions (Crap-outs, Air-outs, chow, etc.)

Just be aware that it is a very *short* book (probably around 50 pages). I got the book as a gift for a friend and had assumed that it was going to be a bigger book based on the price and having never seen it before. Not disappointed, but just be aware that there's not much to it if you do decide to order it.
