What reading level is The Secret Service of the Confederate States in Europe Or How the Confederate book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In view of these and other well-known examples recorded in the naval histories of England as well as the United States, Mr. Seward's continued harping upon the ' foreign origm ' of the Alabama seemed puerile to the representatives of the various Powers to whom he addressed remonstrances on the subject. However, the Florida, although she went into a Confederate port, and was officered, manned, and recommissioned there, was also called by the generic name of ' pirate ' in all the official corresp...ondence of the United States during the war ; and so it appears that, in Mr. Seward's opinion, deeds done by the de facto Government of the revolted colonies in 1777, or by the more formally recognised Government at Washington in 1812-15, were just and lawful acts of war, but that similar acts done by authority of the de facto Government of the Confederate States in 1862 were ' criminal ' and ' nefarious. ' The Surprise, fitted out, armed, and manned at Dunkirk, might with propriety capture a British vessel four days after she had left the neutral port ; the Essex Junior, a captured prize, might be lawfully commissioned by a United States officer, at some savage island in the Pacific, and then sent to prey upon British whalers ; but the Alabama, carrying the commission of a de facto Govern- VOL.
