What reading level is Peace Insurance book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The United States lost 5, 438 men from disease in the Spanish-American War; a death rate of 25 per 1, 000. Had these armies suffered the regular death rate of the City of New Orleans for the years from 1900 to 1909, the Japanese would have lost 17, 550, and the Americans 4, 522 men. The official Russian figures for the Japanese War show a loss of 12, 198, or a rate of 13. 5 per 1, 000. Had the Russians suf- fered the New Orleans rate, they would hurve lost 98 Peace Insurance 14, 500 men, or 1, ...302 more than their official figures show. Thus it is that the death rate from disease in modern war is only slightly more than the death rate in our cities. It is certainly no greater than is the death rate in many occupations which place men in circumstances similar to those of men in the field. General Chittenden continues : It is impossible to make a rational comparison of the suffering from loss of life in war with that in peace. The situations are totally different. Death in the one case ordi- narily comes in the midst of friends with such solacement as love and kindness can bestow ; in the other it comes in the depths of bestial strife, in noisome camp or foul prison, in the absence of all that the heart craves in the hour of its extremity.
