What reading level is The Army of the Potomac : Sketch ; the Phantom Column : Poem book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After twenty hours of fighting, Lee withdrew and reformed his lines. Our loss was about 8,000, and that of the Confed- erates, who came out from behind their entrenchments, was probably equally as great. Here the noble Sedgwick fell. Efforts, however, to dislodge the enemy, after ten days' maneuvering, proving fruitless. Grant again took up the line of march. Forty thousand men had fallen, and the outlook was not encouraging. Sheridan with the cavalry had gone on a raid, and succeeded in defeat...ing the Confederate cavalry at Yellow Tavern, killing General J. E. B. Stuart, the ablest cavalry leader in the Southern armies. Co-operative movements were also going on in the Shenandoah Valley and at Bermuda Hundred, but all eyes were turned upon the Army of the Potomac. Grant crossed the North Anna, but finding that route impracti- cable, recrossed and passed on across the Pamunkey, where he struck his new base of supplies by the York River. But there was still more fighting to be done to secure Cold Harbor, which it was necessary if practicable to hold.
