To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was my fortune to be taken prisoner in India during the war of 1812. Iwas, with others, confined in Fort William at Calcutta, for severalmonths, until the authorities could find an opportunity to send us toEngland. At length the Bengal fleet being ready for their return voyage, the prisoners were distributed on board the several vessels which composedit. I was placed with a few others on board the 'Lord Wellington, ' andbeing in a destitute condition, I agreed to assist in working the ship t...oEngland, at the same rate as the regular hands on board. The fleetrendezvoused in the near vicinity, and consisted of something over thirtysail, most of them of the largest class, and equal in size to aline-of-battle ship. They were well armed, some carrying thirty or fortyguns, with a plentiful supply of muskets, pikes, etc. This had beencustomary for many years, as a protection against the French privateersand men-of-war, which swarmed the Indian ocean; in many instances provingthemselves more than a match for their enemies, and sometimes beating offlarge class frigates.
