What reading level is A Retrospect From the Round Tower of the Pomham Club volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was on board the Gaspee. Larger and larger it grew — the wild flames enveloped the hull, and leaped to the topmasts, the ship was on fire and burned to the water's edge. The Lieu- tenant, Dudingston, who commanded her was shot, but not killed, by a musket ball fired by Joseph Bucklin. In a boat I saw him from this tower carried just there to Pawtuxet. Even as I had seen from this tower the first blood drawn in Philip's war, so had I now seen from this same tower the first blood shed in the g...reater struggle, the war of the Revolution.
It was only a year or two later, while sitting here one afternoon in May, 1776, that I saw two ships launched from the stocks. They were men of war. One the Warren of 32 guns, the other the Pro- vi dence of 28 guns. Both were taken to sea, under my own eyes, and through the British fleet then blockading. The War- ren sailed first, commanded by Captain John B. Hopkins. He got safely to sea. A little later Congress applied to Com- i7 modore Whipple, who was in command of the Providence, to know whether he could take his ship to sea.
