To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The first act of his eventful life had been played — the early lessons of training and endurance thoroughly learned — the scene of his sub- sequent exertions fixed ; and the prudence, courage, coolness, and determination which he displayed on this arena, made him general in chief when the crisis came, of the forces of the Revolutionary struggle. Lord Fairfax had given him the impetus. From him he recei\ed the direction of his genius, and to the attentive student of these early events the convic...tion becomes more and more absolute that Lord Fairfax was the great "influence" of his life. And the interest attaching to the career of this noble patron consists chiefly in his con- nection with the life of the rising hero. Having formed as we have seen in no small measure the character of the boy of seventeen he lived to receive the tidings that this boy had overthrown forever the dominion of Great Britain in America on the field of Yorktown. So had Providence decreed; and the gray-haired baron doubtless felt that he was only the huml)le instrument in that all jiowerful Hand.
