What reading level is With Frederick the Great : a Story of the Seven Years' War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The battle of Prague was one of the fiercest ever fought.
The Austrian army had improved wonderfully since the Sile- sian war ; their artillery were specially good, their infantry had adopted many of the Prussian improvements, and had Browne been in sole command and had he escaped unwounded, the issue of the day might have been changed. The Prussians lost 12,500 men, killed and wounded; the Austrians, including prisoners, 13,300. Frederick himself put the losses higher, estimating that of the A...ustrians at 24,000, of whom 5,000 were prisoners, that of the . Prussians at 18,000, "without 140 WITH FREDERICK THE GREAT counting Marshal Schwerin, who alone was worth about lo,- ooo." It is evident that the king's estimate of the loss of the Austrians must have been excessive. They had the advantage of standing on the defensive. The Prussian guns did but comparatively little service, while their own strong batteries played with tremendous effect upon the Prussians, struggling waist-deep in the mud.
