What reading level is Abraham Lincoln C.1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
McClellan was called to Washington, where he was received not only with cordiality, but also with an outburst of popular enthusiasm. He writes : ' I find myself in a new and strange position here. President, Cabinet, General Scott and all deferring to me. By some strange operation of magic I seem to have become the power of the land.' McClellan was not the type of man that could bear such adulation as this. It created in his heart a spirit of colossal vanity and inordinate self-esteem. Instead ...of realizing that he had to win his spurs, he spoke and acted as if the whole country lay in his hand. In spite of his 122 CIVIL WAR arrogance Lincoln loyally supported him, hoping and believing that he would soon make some effective movement ; but when the months passed without any such move- ment taking place the patience of the Presi- dent was sorely tested. However, in spite of his inactivity, when General Scott retired from the position of General-in-Chief, McClellan was appointed his successor.
