To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Two companies of the Northamptonshire Regiment, " B " (Captain Mobbs) and " C " (Captain Shepherd), were deployed for the attack, with orders to take Fontaine Trench at all costs. An artillery preparation began at 6. 30 p. M. , paused for fifteen minutes at 7. 0, and at 7. 15 down came the barrage, and over went the assaulting companies close behind it. As Fontaine Trench was approached a party of Germans with a captured Lewis gun popped up and began a dispute that was ended in fine style by Li...eutenant G. P. Harding, who rushed to a flank and bombed the gun out of action, killing two of the team, a feat for which he was awarded the M. C. The wire in front of Fontaine Trench proved too formidable an obstacle, and most of the line had to drop into shell-holes, where they were pinned down by heavy machine-gun fire for the rest of the proceedings. But on the left a sunken road running into Cherisy enabled Captain Shepherd, with Lieu- tenant H. C. Osborne and about thirty men, to work round and enter the trench.
