What reading level is A Year in the Navy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Their lights glimmer tranquilly as the white search- lights sweep the entrance.
The sky pales perceptibly in the east.
From the town a bell strikes the hour of five. I am on the bridge, and as 1 count the strokes I think that it is an hour be- fore midnight at home. In the breaking day a French patrol boat comes out from THE FREIGHT CONVOY 111 behind the mole and passes us on her way down the channel. Rapidly the clouds break into flame and a cold, clear breeze comes in from the sea. The ancien...t town becomes visible in the curve of the shore, the spires of the churches, the dark bulk of the dirigible shed, and, toward the sea, the high white summer homes of the newer part of the town along the cliff.
In the great semicircle of the French coast which swings from Brest to the Spanish line are many harbors such as this, harbors whose names sound fre- quently in the early history of our nation, and whose names bear new significance in its latest history of to-day. Nantes recalls the Ranger and John Paul Jones; Qui- beron Bay, a few miles north of it, is memorable for that first salute to the Stars and Stripes by a foreign nation^, when the guns of Admiral Le Motte 112 A YEAR IN THE NAVY Piquet's ships gave it recognition.
