To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was now mid- winter, but the indomitable leader determined to see for himself the route for supplies through Cumberland Gap. Down the mountain sides drifts the snow. For thirty years no such winter storms had howled and beaten around the mountain spurs. See the yet physically un- sound man, in the simplest attire, walking over the diffi- cult paths, with his officers, all driving the horses before them. He would take nothing second hand, and there- fore rarely made blunders.
At Knoxville the... excited people called for a speech ; but he refused. Then they shouted : " Up in a chair> that we may see him. " " Half pushed by General Leslie Coombs, General Grant mounted the improvised rostrum. General Coombs then introduced him in a neat little speech, in which he said that ' General Grant had told him in confidence — and he would not repeat it — that he never had made a speech, knew nothing about speech-making, and had no disposition to learn. ' After satisfying the curiosity of the people, but without ever having opened his mouth, General Grant dismounted from his chair and retired, amid the cheers of the assemblage.
