What reading level is Life of Captain Nathan Hale, the Martyr-Spy of the American Revolution book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Romance too has been busy with Hale. He has been made the hero of tales, and the origi- nator of sentiments, in which the imagination, and not fact, has had the principal part to play.
It is not to be regretted however, that even in these forms, exaggerated though they be, his memory is kept alive. So we are able to sepa- rate the true from the fanciful, we can pardon almost any idealization of Hale's character.
We can forgive the halo for the sake of the NATHAN HALE. 161 truly noble shape wh...ich it encompasses. When, however, we encounter a tribute to his memory, not heightened in coloring, but chaste and natural, like that which we are now about to introduce — it is indeed most grateful — as our Readers also, we think, will find it to be.
It proceeds, in the form of an epitaph, in the old style, from the antiquarian pen of our worthy friend George Gibbs Esquire, Librarian formerly of the New York Historical Society, who has kindly furnished us with it — and we here give it place.
