What reading level is Stonewall Jackson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Their fleet horses bore them quickly to the point of attack. Then dismounting, their unerring rifles made them formidable as foot-soldiers. Mounting again, they rode away to assail some other vulnerable part of the enemy's line. Or, thrown out as a screen, they hid from observation the movements of Jackson's army. Through the daring and skill of Ashby, Jackson hoped at this juncture to draw Banks farther up the Valley. At the same time he was asking for rein- forcements in order that he might a...ttack the Federal forces. The army of Banks, he wrote on April 5th, should not be assailed in the position which it then occupied. "His position should be turned,' ' he said, "and then attacked in front from this side as he falls back. ' ' To this he added, * ' If Banks is de- feated, it may greatly retard McClellan's move- ments.' ' l To Mr. Boteler, a member of the Con- federate Congress from the Valley of Virginia, Jack- son wrote : " What I desire is to hold the country as far as practicable until we are in a condition to advance ; and then, with God's blessing, let us make thorough work of it.
