To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On these the prisoners were made to lie at night, the only bed-cloth provided by the 177 12 In Ruhleben German Government being a blanket as thin as a tablecloth, though prisoners were allowed to provide other blankets and sheets of their own as soon as they could get them, if they had the means to buy them or could become provided with them by friends. Most of them slept in their overcoats and all their other clothes, except their boots and their collars. Their beds were so close to each other... that when anyone turned in his sleep he woke somebody else, and they were only allowed to sleep until six in the morning, when the sentry came round and called out " Aufstehen ! " (Get up !) and they had to get up and troop away two hundred yards in the cold and the darkness to washing-sheds, which had less than one tap to a hundred persons, no hot water and no protection from draughts. The people in the horse-boxes, when they got rid of the smell of the filth and the smell of their predecessors, the horses, were rather better off, for their six bunks were arranged in two tiers round three sides of the box, which had a table and iron garden chairs and the luggage of its occupants in the middle.
