What reading level is A History of the Indian Mutiny Reviewed And Illustrated From Original Documents book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Did you receive a letter and plan from me ? Kindly answer this question. — Yours truly, (Signed) "J. Inglis. " In stating that after the force had been put on half rations the provisions would then last only till about 304 THE INDIAN" MUTINY.
the 10th of September, General Inglis was express- ing the opinion of his responsible advisers. But a serious error was made, as after events proved, in the description of the food-supply, and the account no doubt led General Havelock and the Governor- Gen...eral to form a strong impression as to the desperate condition to which the garrison must be reduced after the 10th of September.^ The error was due to the stores having been collected both by the military department and the civil authorities. At the battle of Chinhut, Captain James, the head of the Commissariat, was severely wounded, and the subordinate officials employed on the storage of the food-supply deserted as soon as news of our disaster reached the Residency. When the siege com- menced, officers were appointed to superintend, under Captain James, the control and distribution of the rations, but it was impossible for them to know, without the records of the subordinate officials, the location and quantity of the food stored, and they had not the leisure to make an accurate inventory.
