What reading level is Indiscretions of the Naval Censor book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The last author to whom I will refer is Lord Jellicoe. I had known for six or more months (long before any criticisms by amateur and ill-informed writers of the Battle of Jutland had been published) that he was writing a book, describing the organisa- tion and training of the Grand Fleet and so on during his arduous period as Commander-in-Chief, but it came as a bit of a shock to me when, somewhere about the middle of December, 1918 (after the Armistice), I received a bundle of proofs and a let...ter asking me 116 Authors and Publishers it' I would go through them and see if there was any- thing objectionable in them.
Before starting in on them, I wrote back and said that as there was now no question of censorship (this had been entirely removed since November 20), why was it necessary for me to go through the book? I thought that I had got clear of proofs, &c, for the rest of my natural life, having been satiated with them for the last four and a half years.
The reply I got was flattering and left me, as ex- Chief Naval Censor, no option but to get to work, which I did without delay, as, according to plan, the publishers were waiting for the proofs.
