What reading level is Mcclellan : From Ball's Bluff to Antietam book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This presentation of himself by Little Mac to the drawn-np divisions of the army was tjie last card which tlie little hero played ; and, by-the-bye, he must have been utterly astounded, after what his flatterers had promised him, that the experienced veterans of the Peninsula did not break ranks, and swear grimly by their bayonets he should not be thus rudely torn away.
But they did nothing of the kind, and the worst feature of the disappoint- ment was, that it was really doubtful whether the a...cclaim was meant for Burnside or for him.
It certainly cannot be said that Burnside did not act generously by him, in giving him so liberal a chance to test his strength, and in lavishing such kind and courtly terms on one whom the Government had so ignominiously condemned. Indeed, this courtesy on Burnside's part was thought to be rather a stretch of military rule, and, in that point of view, the friends of the latter have not hesitated to declare, that Fitz Napoleon acted very meanly in not returning even so much as one grateful word to the new chieftain in re- ply.
