What reading level is Captain Desmond, V.C. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It pleased herto believe that he was in some way aware of her companionship; thatperhaps he was even glad of it--glad that she should feel no lightestshrinking from the temple that had enshrined the brave jewel of hissoul.
Arrived in her own room, she found Parbutti huddled on the ground, ina state of damp and voluble distress. She could not bring herself todismiss the old woman at once; though her heart cried out forsolitude, and weariness seemed suddenly to dissolve her very bones. She saw no...w that her love had deepened and strengthened duringDesmond's absence, as great love is apt to do; and the shock of hisreturn, coupled with the scant possibility of her own escape, hadtried her fortitude more severely than she knew.
She submitted in silence to the exchanging of her tea-gown for a whitewrapper, and to the loosening of her hair, Parbutti crooning over herceaselessly the while.
"Now I will soothe your Honour's head till weariness be forgotten, Omy Miss Sahib, daughter of my heart! Sleep without dreams, my life;and have no fear for the Captain Sahib, who is surely favoured of thegods by reason of his great courage.
