What reading level is Richard I. book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was always found to contain very important information inrespect to the condition or plans of the besieged. If a sortie wasintended from the city, it stated the time and the place, and detailedall the arrangements, thus enabling Richard to be on his guard. So, ifthe Saracens were projecting an attack on the lines from within, thewhole plan of it was fully explained, and, of course, it would then bevery easy for Richard to frustrate it. The writer of the letters saidthat he was a Christian, b...ut would not say who he was, and the mysterywas never explained. It is quite possible that there is very littletruth in the whole story.
At all events, though the assaults which the allies made against thewalls and bulwarks of the town were none of them wholly successful, the general progress of the siege was altogether in their favor, andagainst the poor Saracens shut up within it. The last hope which theyindulged was that some supplies would come to them by sea; butRichard's fleet, which remained at anchor off the town, blockaded theport so completely that there was no possibility that any thing couldget in.
