What reading level is Thrilling Incidents of the Wars of the United States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
General Gates, sensible that delay was in his favour, meditated no immediate attack on the hostile camp, but diligently took measures to prevent the escape of the royal army from the toils in which it was entangled.
General Burgoyne's difficulties were great, and daily increasing. His army was reduced to five thousand regular troops ; his provisions were almost exhausted, and his men put on short allowance ; his horses were perishing for want of forage ; he was so environed by his enemy that he... could procure no fresh supplies, and he had received no recent intel- ligence from Sir Henry Clinton. He could not long remain in the position which he then occupied, and he was not ignorant of the difficulty and danger of a retreat. In these circumstances, he resolved to try the fortune of another battle ; as a victory would enable him either to advance, or to retreat with safety.
Accordingly, on the 7th of October, he led out fifteen hundred men, well provided with artillery, and, accompanied by Generals Philips, Reidesel, and Frazer, marched against Gates, leaving his camp on the high grounds under the care of Generals Hamilton and Specht, and the redoubts and posts 21* 246 REVOLUTIONARY WAR.
