What reading level is The Nurses Story in Which Reality Meets Romance book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Shrapnel is for human beings, and is a metal case containing dozens of bullets, perhaps a half inch in diameter, packed in by hand, which carries a charge of explosives timed to burst at the moment it reaches its destination. The bullets are smooth and round and if they go through soft tissue do not do great injury, but if they strike a bone they flatten and then the harm they do is incalculable.
Rifle fire at short range is far and away the most murderous. And after I had been at the hospital ...a week or two I understood the gravity of the oft repeated charge on both sides of dum dum bullets.
The ordinary bullet is encased in nickel, has a lead core and makes a clean perforation, even piercing the bone with little damage. In dum- 68 THE NURSE S STORY dum bullets, the nickel casing at the tip is cut or removed and consequently when it strikes the casing, "mushrooms" and does fearful damage.
These bullets were forbidden by the Geneva Conference.
The German bullet, however, is far more barbaric, for it is short and pointed and when it strikes it turns a somersault and goes in backward.
