What reading level is The Real Louis the Fifteenth volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The guns which he took with him were drawn by hand. Thus the position was, as admitted by their writers, distinctly in favour of the French ; although, in case of a reverse, the retreat of many thousands of men across the River Escaut by bridges could only prove disastrous.
To guard these bridges there were left twenty thou- sand men on the river banks, who were, therefore, out of action and useless ; while in order to protect the King a force of six thousand men, including the Household Cavalr...y, gendarmerie, and flower of the army, were left with him in a post out of danger. This was near a mill on high ground, and a battery of artillery was also left there to protect the King and the Dauphin, who was unwillingly compelled to remain inactive with his father.
In this post of security, well protected, when first the cannons began to roar, Louis showed himself very lively while the carnage was commencing elsewhere. He, surrounded by his Ministers and Household troops, started singing a very free soldiers' song, causing those around him to join in the chorus.
