To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Father was in command at Petersburg, and Colonel J. T. Goode commanded the brigade. . . . Our left was about a hundred yards south of a bastion known as Elliott's salient. Life in the trenches was indescribably monotonous and uncomfortable. In time of sunshine the reflected heat from the new red-clay embankments was intense, and unrelieved by shade or breeze ; and in wet weather one was ankle-deep in tough, cling- ing mud. The incessant shelling and picket-firing made extreme caution necessary ...in moving about ; and each day, almost each hour, added to the list of casualties. The opposing lines were not over two hundred yards apart, and the distance between the rifle pits was about one hundred yards. Both sides had attained accurate marksmanship, which they practised with merciless activity in picking off men. . . . The men resorted to many expedients to secure some degree of comfort and protection. They learned to burrow like conies. Into the sides of the trenches and transverses they went with bayonet and tin cups to secure shade ana protection from rain.
