What reading level is Canada Its Rise And Progress book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the 8th, however, a body CONFEDERATION OF THE PROVINCES. 269 of Fenians, 2, 000 strong, under the command of General Spear, crossed the frontier near St. Albans, and marched three miles into the interior. There they formed a sort of camp, whence they spread out over the country, plundering every description of property which could possibly be of any use to them. But the advance of troops against them caused them to retreat across the border, where Spear and other leaders were arrested by Gen...eral Meade, and the masses of mischievous men rapidly dispersed, the American Government granting them free con- veyance home on the different railway lines. Thus terminated the Fenian invasion of the Canadian frontier. The actual injury to property it produced was not of much account ; but the indirect loss sus- tained by this country 40, 000 volunteers being at one period under arms was very considerable. No new Fenian attempts were made against Canada. During the summer, gunboats guarded the lake and river approaches ; and troops and volunteers, stationed at every assailable point, demonstrated the folly of further efforts at invasion.
