What reading level is Soldiering in Sunshine And Storm book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Subsequently we managed always to have breakfast first, the cooks preparing for it over night, and while we dressed and saddled in the morning, they lit the fires and made the coffee or cocoa. This was preferable to going out empty, for I believe that every one, Scotchmen not excepted, will at all times fight better on a full stomach than on an empty one. The position of our outpost in the valley I shall always consider to have been badly chosen. An outlying picket ought to be concealed entirel...y from observation, either by natural or artificial obstacles ; and although our picket was posted remarkably close to the camp, no shelter of any kind was provided or constructed. The sentry's post likewise was equally ill chosen, on the slope of a hill which certainly commanded a view of the entrance to the valley, but it left the vedette entirely exposed. The Cossack, on the contrary, posted on Canrobert's Hill, could look right into our lines : being behind the crest, he need only peep over it, and so was not only concealed himself, but the whole of the picket were secure from observation.
