To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The shells began to come, one on the heels of the other withalarming frequency; hardly had one burst when another was discovered inthe air. The poilus, who had taken the first shells as a matter ofcourse, good-naturedly even, began to get as cross as peevishschoolboys. It was decidedly too much of a good thing. Finally the orderwas given for every one except the sentinels, who were standing underthe occasional shelters of beams and earth bridged across the trench, toretire to the abris. I saw o...ne of the exposed sentinels as I withdrew, abig, heavily built, young fellow with a face as placid as that of a farmanimal; his rifle leaned against the earth of the trench, and the shadowof the shelter fell on his expressionless features. The next sentinelwas a man in the late thirties, a tall, nervous soldier with a fierce, aggressive face. The abri to which we retired was about twenty-five feet long and eightfeet wide, and had a door at either end. The hut had been dug right inthe crude, calcareous rock of Lorraine, and the beams of the roof weredeeply set into these natural walls.
