What reading level is Sketches of the War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I turned, therefore, and made my way back as a burglar might glide through a house — sliding my feet along the ground, lest I should tread upon some crackling branch — choosing the thickest wood and the darkest shade. About an hour later, I saw, as I thought, some tents, but knew it was most improbable there should be any there ; so I stopped to examine, and then saw they were but the grey light of morning breaking through the trees. It was a welcome sight; yet I con- fess the night had not see...med long, and that I was sur- prised to find the morning come.
I now changed my course, and turned toward the east. The woods changed too. There were small trees, with little underbrush, and the ground was a smooth, descending plain. I kept on over this for miles. The sky brightened; the sun rose, and mounted higher and higher. I heard the barking of dogs, the lowing of cattle, and occasionally the voices of men and children.
THE ESCAPE 129 I came, too, upon roads, and these liad to be crossed with great caution, coming out step by step, looking carefully up and down, listening anxiously, and then hurrying across and plunging into the woods on the other side.
