What reading level is The Mintage book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was easy to destroy Custer, but it meant a dead Sioux for everywhite soldier.
The Indians made sham charges to draw Custer’s fire, and thenwithdrew.
They circled closer. The squaws came up with sticks and stones andmenaced wildly.
Custer’s fire grew less and less. He was running out of ammunition.
Terry was only five miles away.
The Indians closed in like a cloud around Custer and his fewsurvivors.
It was a hand-to-hand fight—one against a hundred.
In five minutes every man was dead, and the... squaws were stripping themangled and bleeding forms.
Already the main body of Indians was trailing across the plains towardthe mountains.
Terry arrived, but it was too late.
An hour later Reno limped in, famished, half of his men dead orwounded, sick, undone.
To follow the fleeing Indians was useless—the dead soldiers must bedecently buried, and the living succored. Terry himself had sufferedsore.
The Indians were five thousand strong, not two. They had gathered upall the other tribes for more than a hundred miles.
