What reading level is Address Delivered Before the Literary Societies of Erskine College Abbeville Di book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He loved his officers and crowned them with honors, wealth and distinction ; he was as kind as a father to his soldiers, and has been seen administering with his own hand to the humblest wants on the field of battle ; he studied the comforts of his army with a philanthropy which would do credit to a Howard ; he has been known to yield his own horse to his sick soldiery, and expose his life in the hospitals of Egypt attending to their comforts. But in order to gratify his unhallowed ambi- tion t...o gain a battle or conquer a nation, or add a new laurel to his brow, he would sacrifice officers and men by thousands and hundreds of thousands.
In one respect he was certainly the opposite of Lord Bacon. There was no want of firmness in his character. His courage was indomitable. Nothing could shake it. To his mind there were no terrors. He cared not for the combined forces of Europe. With an army of fifty thousand men he would undertake to conquer one of three hundred thousand. We see him, almost solitary and alone, escaping from Elba, and throwing himself into the midst of an army of ten thousand, sent to capture him.
