What reading level is John Esten Cooke Virginian book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
General Cooper of the Richmond staff ruled, however, that Stuart already had his full complement of majors, but gave Cooke a temporary transfer to the Ordnance Department. Lieu- tenants Freanor and Ryals and Captain White of Stuart's division were soon advanced over Cooke, and he entered a protest. He was a personal friend of the three officers, was not jealous of their promotion, but wished if possible to remove the reflection on his ability as an officer occa- sioned thereby. Although making ...no formal complaint, he urged that something be done. But Lee, Stuart, and his own efforts could not avail. He was still a captain at the end of the war.
Cooke was permanently grieved by this failure to advance in grade and never understood why he was not promoted.
80 JOHN ESTEN COOKE, VIRGINIAN He preserved all the documents in the case to show the high quality of his recommendations. The secret of the matter seems to lie in certain eventualities that grew out of his being a man of letters. The Life of Stonewall Jack- son, which appeared soon after the general's death in 1863, contains quietly worded passages which might well have nettled a high-handed and inexperienced administration.
