What reading level is The Life of Nathanael Greene, Major-General in the Army of the Revolution book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A fruitless but expensive at- tempt to invade Florida — an attempt not more profitable in its results, to recover Georgia — contributed greatly to diminish the resources of Carolina in the personnel and tnateriel of war. The bloody conflict in the attempt- ed storm of Savannah, had fallen heavily on the Carolina troops, had diminished her regiments, had burdened her with an excessive debt, and had destroyed the value of her currency. The regular regiment of Georgia had been destroyed, or was in... captivity, and her own militia had suffered severely, and been scattered or taken, in the latter state ; surprised in the charge of incompetent officers, under the more skilful operations of the invader.
Thus circumstanced, she was but feebly prepared to re- sist the third and successful attempt of the British gen- eral-in-chief to obtain firm foothold in her soil.
Charleston, besieged by a vastly superior force of the enemy, under Sir Henry Clinton himself, succumbed, after a siege of nearly two months.
