What reading level is Recollections of a Lifetime book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The roads off of the macadamized pike were almost impassable, and I often sent my trains from ten to twenty miles on the pike for forage, when, except for the impassable roads, I could have found abundance in three or four miles.
The raw troop, unaccustomed to the exposure of camp life, suffered greatly from sickness and many died. The measles broke out and almost decimated some regiments, and after awhile the small-pox made its appearance and made some headway, so upon the whole the winter at ...Bardstown was one of great discomfort and no glory.
Among the few pleasurable incidents I remember of my winter in Bardstown was the generosity and Christian courtesy of the Catholic authorities at St. Joseph's Col- lege, the famous school of the Jesuit fathers. Of course the school was closed, but the faculty consisting of twelve or fifteen priests, with Father Verdon at their head, re- mained in charge, and their daily attentions to sick soldiers were unremitting, and when the small-pox ap- peared, they never quailed for an instant, whilst the Protestant clergy disappeared.
