What reading level is Personnel Versus Materiel in Plans for National Defense book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This extraordinary man, whom no misfortune could conquer, set to work to raise armies, and with such herculean energy and ability that within a few weeks half a million men 526 10 had been assembled and fairly well equipped. Armies of 100, 000 men were improvised almost overnight in the northwest and south. Unfortunately Gam- betta found no leader of his own mold, and his tireless efforts finally went for naught.
Nor were the armies themselves ever competent. Time was lacking. The experienced o...fficers were almost all prisoners of war. Organization was loose ; supplies irregular or lacking ; even the clothing was insufficient for a winter campaign. Poor discipline, wounds, disease, exhaustion, cold, and famine ravaged these vast armies of volunteers and conscripts and strewed the roads of France with their debris.
Unless it be the retreat from Moscow, there is no sadder picture in all his- tory than one of these intensely patriotic but helpless bodies of men, driven about by the iron German veteran armies, suffering all possible miseries and wretchedly perishing to no purpose during the winter of 1870-71.
