What reading level is Notes of a War Correspondent book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
You must stop with the British army if you want bugle-calls and clank- ing sabres and gauntlets. They are a part of the panoply of war and of warriors. But we saw no warriors at Ventersburg that night, only a few cattle-breeders and farmers who were fighting for the land they had won from the lion and the bushman, and with them a mixed company of gentleman adventurers — ^gathered around a table discussing other days in other lands. The pict- ure of war which is most familiar is the one of 194 T...he Night Before the Battle the people of Brussels fleeing from the city with the French guns booming in the distance, or as one sees it in "Shenandoah," where aides gallop on and off the stage and the night signals flash from both sides of the valley. That is the ob- vious and dramatic side; the other side of war is the night before the battle, at Jones's Hotel; the landlady in the dining-room with her elbows on the table, fretfully deciding that after a day in front of the cooking-stove she is too tired to escape an invading army, declaring that the one place at which she would rather be at that mo- ment was Green's restaurant in Philadelphia, the heated argument that immediately follows be- tween the foreign legion and the Americans as to whether Rector's is not better than the Cafe de Paris, and the general agreement that Ritz cannot hope to run two hotels in London without being robbed.
