What reading level is France And the War As Seen By An American book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Such a passion of revenge is constantly charged to them by what the French characterize as the clumsy indulgence of patronizing enemies. The Germans find in this feeling the sufficient reason of all the French military measures. It is so generally taken for granted, indeed, as being a natural feeling, that the entire absence of it before the present war, a fact to which I can testify, is more than noteworthy. Never have I heard such a feeling expressed in any French circle; nor have I heard the... topic of revenge discussed except in historical connections.
The revanche of the Gambettists, and that 29 FRANCE AND THE WAR of the special prophets of Alsace like Deroulede, were discussed with the or- dinary French love of analysis and para- dox, but not as being a living national purpose or motive. The feeling was really one of humane pity for the in- habitants of the lost provinces and the wish that at some future time they might be delivered. It was pro-Alsatian more than anti-German. So radicallv unmili- V tary have their ideals become under the Eepublican regime, that the French cannot conceive of happiness or content- ment in unfortunate Alsace, under the Prussian rule.
