What reading level is The Black Jacks book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Tice, and Joshua arrived in San Antonio three days before the peace talks were scheduled and two days before the first Comanches appeared.
The mission San Antonio de Valero had been established here in 1718, and by 1773 San Antonio de Bexar, the village which had grown up around the mission, became the official seat of Spanish government in Texas. Nestled in a bend of the river that bore the same name, the village of San Antonio had a population of twenty-five hundred on the eve of the Texas Rev...olution. Most of its buildings were constructed of adobe or stone and mortar, and were built in the flat-roofed Mexican style.
It was here, at the mission called the Alamo, that two hundred men under the joint command of William Barret Travis, Jim Bowie, and Davy Crockett had delayed Santa Anna for thirteen precious days, holding out against a vastly superior Mexican army. The defenders of the Alamo had stood their ground and perished like the Spartans at Thermopylae. A charred ruin now, the mission was still, and always would be, a shrine for Texans, for in those thirteen days Sam Houston had gathered together a force sufficient to defeat Santa Anna a few weeks later and win independence for Texas.
