What reading level is History of Our War With Spain Including Battles On Sea And Land to Which is book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Notwithstanding the superiority of the Hornet, the same disparity between the execution and the difference in force, is to be seen in this action, as in those already mentioned. In allowing the Hornet to get the weather-gauge, the Peacock was out-manoeuvred ; but with this exception, she is understood to have been well managed t though her gunnery was defective. The only shot that touched the hull of the Hornet, was one fired as the latter ship was falling off, in waring; it merely glanced athw...art her bows, indenting a plank beneath the cathead.
As this shot must have been fired from a starboard gun of the Pea cock, the fact demonstrates how well she was handled ; and that, in waring, her commander had rightly estimated and judiciously used the peculiar powers of a brig, though the quick movements of his antagonist deprived him of the result he had expected, and immedi ately gave the Hornet a decided advantage in position. It would be cavilling to deny that this short combat was decided by the superior gunnery and rapid handling of the Hornet.
