What reading level is Memorial Bridge book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The temperature was kept at an even seventy degrees year-round, the only variable being the level of moisture in the air, which in winter was raised and in summer lowered.
July 28, 1965, was one of a string of sweltering days in Washington and the weather had made its citizens cranky and nervous. Inside the Pentagon, though, the men were unwrinkled and they moved through their concourses, corridors and ramps with the crisp feeling of expectancy. They were about to come into their own again, for ...this was the day on which the war they'd already begun fighting was going to be declared. Or so they assumed.
The President was addressing the nation at noon. Only the minuscule circle of his closest advisors had seen his text, but military men—the brass, but also JCS staffers and intelligence analysts, experts who had just accompanied the secretary of defense on his reassessment tour of Vietnam, compilers who had processed the daily dispatches from MACV, evaluators who had worked over the reams of indications data, sum-marizers who had drafted the mountain of follow-up white papers on force-level ratios, endurance estimates, morale assessments, North-South infiltration reviews, air interdiction effectiveness studies—all of these men knew already what the President was going to say, had to say, would go down in history for saying.
