What reading level is Southern Heroes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As they put him into the wagon a Yan kee doctor, who was among the prisoners, discerned signs of life in him, and requested the men in charge to put him back, which they refused to do. The doc tor explained the matter to the guard, and called upon him to leave the still living prisoner. They then rudely threw him upon the ground, but were finally compelled by the guards to put him in the house. The Yankee doctor gave him such attend ance as he could, and called upon a prison physician for assis...tance. The man finally recovered and lived to escape from the prison.
The custom of handling the bodies was rude in the extreme, and is only another illustration of the demoralizing and brutalizing effects of the war system. As the dead-wagon was driven into the yard each morning, the driver called loudly : " Bring out your dead. " Two men grasped each a hand and SOUTHERN HEROES. 171 a foot of the supposed corpse, often swinging it, to obtain united force, and then threw it, as we have seen dressed hogs thrown into a wagon ; and precisely as we have seen men handle these with a hook, if occa sion required, the driver or assistant would hook the body under the jaw and drag it into place in the wagon.
