What reading level is Across the Zodiac : the Story of a Wrecked Record book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Two points were very soon made clear to all. The offender had justly forfeited his life ; and if his death were necessary or greatly conducive to the safety of the rest, the mercy which for his sake imperilled worthier men and sacred truths would have been no less than a crime. The thought, however, that weighed most with me against my natural feeling was an expe- rience to which none present could appeal. I had sat on many courts-martial where cowardice was the only charge imputed ; and in eve...ry case in which that charge was proved, sentence of death had been passed and carried out on a ground I could not refuse to consider sufficient : — namely, that the infection of terror can best be repressed by an example inspiring deeper terror than that to which the prisoner has yielded. Compelled by these precedents, though with intense reluctance, I submitted at last to the universal judgment. Esmo having collected the will, I cannot say the voices, of the assembly, paused for a minute in silence.
