What reading level is Abraham Lincoln : the People's Leader in the Struggle for National Existence book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the 6th of November, 1864, I was in Libby Prison, having been captured at the battle of Cedar Creek in October. It was decided to hold a Presidential election in the prison, although some of us were rather doubtfvJ as to the policy and anxious in regard to the result. The exchange of prisoners had been blocked for nearly a year on the ground of the refusal on the part of the South to exchange the coloured troops or white officers who held commissions in coloured regi- ments. Lincoln took the... ground, very properly, that all of the nation's soldiers must be treated alike and must be protected by a uniform policy.
Until the coloured troops should be included in the exchange, "there can," said Lincoln, "be no The Final Campaign 159 exchanging of prisoner's." This decision, while sound, just, and necessary, brought, naturally, a good deal of dissatisfaction to the men in prison and to their friends at home. When I reached Libby in October, I found there men who had been prisoners for six or seven months and who (as far as they lived to get out) were to be prisoners for five months more.
