What reading level is General James Shields Soldier Orator Statesman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Paul, and N. M. Donaldson of Owa- tonna. The memory of Gen. Judson W. Bishop supplies the nar- rative of an episode which we do not find of record, but which shows General Shields' dominating military spirit, and which came near giving him the title of a Soldier in four wars. When the Indian massacre at Spirit Lake, Iowa, occurred in 1857, General Shields, then residing at Faribault, promptly rallied a company of his colonists and other citizens, had them armed and mounted and started for the s...cene of hostilities, about 150 miles distant. Other bands of settlers, living nearer, arrived first, and the Indians had disappeared. General Bishop, head- ing a surveying party, met Shields' detachment on their re- turn, and vividly describes their zeal and ardor. Thus the for- mer brigade commander in Mexico, the future division com- mander in Virginia, was equally ready to lead a hundred un- disciplined men in what might have been a very hazardous campaign. After retiring from office as Senator from Minnesota, Gen- eral Shields was led by business considerations to settle in Cal- ifornia.
