What reading level is The Army of the Potomac Sketch volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Army of the Potomac lost twelve thousand, three hundred, in killed, wounded and missing, and the Army of Northern Virginia five thousand, three hundred and nine. This battle has been fitly described as the " most bloody and the most useless of the war. " On the 19th of January, 1863, Burnside essayed another crossing above Fredericksburg, but a heavy rain came on, and the celebrated abortive " mud march " was aban- doned. No other movement of importance was or c(juld be made under Burnside,... in whose ability to command so large a force the army had lost confidence. Both Generals Franklin and Smith wrote the President advising against the advance to Richmond by that route and recommend- ing a return to the Peninsula. President Lincoln, while refusing to accept this suggestion, relieved the situation by retiring Burnside and placing General Joseph Hooker in command. It is notable that Burnside never lost the respect and affection of the army, and his subsequent career served to endear him still more closelv to his troops and to the country.
