What reading level is The Kaisers War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the pursuit of money the modern German has lost his head. Dis- honesty became rampant in the business world. Hundreds of promising young men have "done time" in consequence. If the cobbler personified the upstart spirit of lower Imperial Germany, Eulenburg typified it in the upper classes.
It is an easy thing to make a nation brutal. If we want to understand the German attitude we must remember that in Germany the Army not only takes first place but is the life and reason of her being. By th...e rules 126 THE KAISER'S WAR of the military code an officer is bound to " defend his honour by force. " He may not accept an apology in the event of a technical assault. Thus a man who on leaving a cafe, for example, brushes against an officer is techni- cally liable to be cut down. Cases of this kind are of constant occurrence. A year or so back there was a notorious case of a midshipman running his dirk into a soldier who lurched against him in the street. Only a short while back an officer shot a man in a big Berlin cafe who had stumbled over his foot.
