What reading level is The Battles of the Somme book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The French troops who broke through in the Champagne fell before they reached the second line. At Loos Highlanders and Londoners swept through the first line and then, at Hill 70 and Hulluch, were faced by annihilating fire, and could go no further except to death. . . . But to-day we broke the second German line. I had the luck to give the news to some of our men who had been wounded early in the battle. It was worth a king's ransom to see their gladness. "Have we got through, sir?" asked an E...nglish boy, bandaged about the head and face. When I told him a great light came into his eyes, and he said "By Jove! . . . That's pretty good!" A wounded officer raised himself on a stretcher and called out to me as I passed, "Any news? . . . How are we doing up there? . . . What, right through? . . . Oh, splendid!" Because I had come down from the battlefield, and might know something, officers and men on the roads asked eager questions. A doctor came out of an operating theatre in a field hospital.
