What reading level is The Sepoy Revolt : a Critical Narrative book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Driving in the enemy's outlying pickets, he advanced to the Dil Koosha plateau, seizing the two posts of the Dil Koosha Palace and the Mahomed Bagh, where, in order to reply effectually to the enemy's 216 THE DECISIVE CONTEST guns, he constructed two powerful counter-batteries.
These, opening fire next day, silenced the enemy; and on the 4th, Walpole's division, with the rest of the siege-train, moved over from the Alum Bagh, and encamped on the Dil Koosha position, where, at dusk, Franks's col
...umn also marched in from the east and joined.
The same evening two bridges were begun from the Dil Koosha position across the Goomtee to the east, near the village of Beebiapore. By next morn- ing, the 5th, one of them was finished, and its bridge- head begun. On the night of the 5th the bridges and the necessary arrangements were completed, and the whole of Outram's force crossed over by day- break. Until that force had advanced sufficiently to the west in its turning movement — that is, until the 9th — Sir Colin's troops at the Dil Koosha designedly remained inactive, not even attacking the Marti- niere, which continued to worry them with its fire ; but Franks's column, meanwhile, moved up from the rear and replaced Walpole's division on Lugard's left.
