To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

These three young men, all boys at the same time in different quarters of the globe, had come together while still in early youth and were entering into the great work of the American Revolution.
CHAPTER VII A Successful Failure It was on the 20th of December that Lafayette received the joyful news of the birth of a second daughter. She was named Anastasie. The whole camp shared in the happiness of the young father.
In fact, the affairs of the young hero interested everybody so much that there
...was indeed some danger that he would be spoiled. And he certainly would have been but for the balance of good judg- ment and mental poise that offset youthful rash- ness and vanity.
At about the same time, in a long letter to his father-in-law, he explained the course of action he had marked out for himself. He said: '^I read, I study, I examine, I listen, I reflect ; and the result of all is the endeavor at forming an opinion into which I infuse as much common sense as possible.
I will not talk much, for fear of saying foolish things ; for I am not disposed to abuse the confidence which the Americans have kindly placed in me.^' 62 A SUCCESSFUL FAILURE 63 This was Lafayette^s real spirit and his secret counsel to himself; and we can but wonder that a young man so impetuous, so enthusiastic, one who had had the courage to start out on this haz- ardous enterprise, should have combined with those qualities so cool and steady a judgment and so rigid a self-control.
