What reading level is Willie Gallachers Story the Clyde in Wartime Sketches of a Stormy Period book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
McLean defied his enemies — his speech from the dock was a masterpiece. He was sentenced to three years' penal servitude.
The next trial was that of Johnnie Muir, Walter Bell and myself. We appeared in the same court as McLean — but what a contrast ! Even now it is hard to think of it without a feeling of shame.
Our counsel tried to persuade me to keep out of the witness-box, arguing that the prosecution might force from me the authorship of the article. But I insisted on taking the stand. They... asked me, had I written the article in the Worker ? No. Who had written it ? I did not know. Did I approve of the editor publishing it ? Yes.
Had I refrained from going into the witness-box, it i8 would not have affected our fate. Our conviction was assured, from the beginning. It was a rotten business all through, and my only satisfaction was that, by going into the box, I was able to share responsibility with Johnnie Muir. A bold stand in court would have aroused wider protest among the workers on our behalf.
