What reading level is Leading American Soldiers book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This was the underlying reason that deter- mined all Lee's movements in the ensuing campaign up to 176 LEADING AMERICAN SOLDIERS the moment when he abandoned his positions on the North Anna. But war is only a factor in the larger game of politics; Richmond might from a strict military point of view be no more than a fortress, but from the larger political standpoint it was the capital of the Confederacy. Lee's constant desire to act on sound military principle was as constantly neutral- ized by... the despairing cry of the Southern leaders that Richmond must be defended at all costs, and Lee's army eventually became its garrison and thereby doomed to destruction.
This naturally brings us to the third point, — what was the true strategic objective of Grant's army ? He might aim at the capture of Richmond or at the destruction of the Con- federate army. As a matter of strict rule the latter was the correct course, and from Grant's memoirs it seems clear that what he set out to do was to attack and if possible destroy Lee.
