What reading level is History of the Twelfth Regiment New Hampshire Volunteers in the War of the Rebe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The order was obeyed just in time to save the pass from a most desperate attempt to capture it by a rebel division sent there by General Hood for that purpose. It was during this fight, which lasted for six hours, and was one of the most stubborn of the war, that Sherman, who had ordered troops to the relief of the garrison, sent the now world-famous dispatch: " Hold the fort for I am coming" and to which the heroic defender, General Corse, made the bull-dog reply : " I am short a cheek bone an...d an ear, but can lick all h 1 yet. " Sending messages by means of signals is therefore of great advantage to an invading army where a dispatch bearer would often have to cross the enemy s country and liable to be captured, or where word can only be sent by penetrating the enemy s lines where greater danger still would be incurred. For this reason, knowing that the rebellious states would have to be invaded, the signal corps was early organized, and thoroughly drilled and equipped under the orders of General McClellan, as soon as he took command ; and its history, which is being written, cannot fail to show its great usefulness not only in transmitting orders and messages of impor tance, but in collecting and reporting important facts of observation.
