To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The enemy made a gallant and noble defense.
The climate was burning, and the want of water great and almost insuf- ferably distressing. Never were British valor and resolution put to a severer trial. Some of the soldiers dropped down dead, under the pressure of heat, thirst and fatigue. Before the middle of July the army, in this unwholesome and burning region, and under the rigor of such extraordinary services, was reduced to half its original numbers.
Five thousand soldiers and three thousand... seamen were ill at one time.
The hearts of the most sanguine sunk within them while they saw this fine army wasting by disease, and they could not but tremble for that noble fleet which had so long been exposed along the open shore and must, in all human probability, suffer inevitable ruin should the hurri- cane season come on before the reduction of the place. As the season advanced the prospect grew more and more unfavorable. But when the troops were on the point of total despondency the arrival of troops from North America revived their drooping spirits, gave fre^h vigor to their operations, and was of the most signal service.
