What reading level is The American Front book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the towns themselves when I beheld them a few days later, still graphically bore witness to the severity of the fighting. Their streets had not as yet been cleared of debris nor had the shell-holes been filled up. Their houses were gutted; their churches disembowelled by high explosives. A sickening stench of rotting horse-flesh, of unburied dead, was in the air, augmented by the heat of early August. Flies that bred by the million infested the air and stung like poisoned needles; the cloud...s of dust strangled you on the roads. Those were [ 107] THE .OIZRICAX FRONT the days when our hospitals were taxed to their utmost capaoty; whoi our doctors and nurses had no rest by day or night, Fere-en-Tardenois bore the same imprint of deso- lation as the vassal villages about it. A certain number of its inhabitants, it is true, had remained hidden in their cellars during the bambardment, and were now busily engaged in clearing out their rained homes where such a thing was possible. Ger- msji prisoners, clceely guarded, were put to work to aid them, and I watched with a certain amount of pleasure one squad of them as they cleaned up the wrecked Mairie that still bore upon its front, in letters three feet high, the words: Orts-Komman- dantur.
