What reading level is The Admiral a Romance of Nelson in the Year of the Nile book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Admiral has placed it on record in one of his letters that the Neapolitan soldier never contemplates fighting, and begins to think of severing his connection with the army whenever the guns are loaded. Still Mack's force did all the fighting there was in the campaign. Out of twenty thousand, a thousand were killed, and nine hundred wounded, not to mention ten thousand prisoners. The Admiral wrote to Captain Troubridge : " It is reported that the Neapolitan officers and many of their men are... run away even at sight of the enemy. " Another body of nineteen thousand were put to flight by a French corps of three thousand after they had lost but forty men ; and the French, proclaiming them 262 XTbe B&miral beneath pursuit, contented themselves with taking possession of their camp and cannon and treasure chest. The fugitives poured back to Naples, and the Royal Family prepared for the w/orst.
Now, with its army and artillery intact, Naples might have defied the French, for it had vast numbers of fierce lazzaroni — the rough people of the street — passionately attached to their King, capable in their steep narrow alleys, and in the extremely rugged districts round Naples, of maintaining a most formidable guerilla warfare.
