What reading level is Personal Reminiscences of the Caribbean Sea And the Spanish Main Written By Fra book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In general, the bulk of the soldiers on each xlvij each side are harmless, peaceful Indians and half-breeds, with no real interest in, or knowledge of, what they are fighting about. Rarely is any great moral prin- "ciple or question of right involved, ex- cept upon paper. More often it is the greed for money and power by a few rival leaders or factions.
To tell you of the rows of peasants I have seen brought in, tied in columns by ropes, and enlisted the next day as vol- unteers; to tell you of... the boys in their early teens made to shoulder a musket and march off to almost certain death in marshy jungles, would take too much time and serve no purpose. We trans- ported over our road one regiment, many boys too young to bear the weights they had to carry, and in eight weeks brought back the same regiment with not one quarter still living and even then we had to stop the train to remove those who had died in transit before taking the troop cars into the city. It will be enough to tell you of one naval engagement on the Magdalena River in which our own boats were part of both engaging fleets.
