What reading level is The Bloody Border book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

A wolf never does, but circles around the body warily, alert for traps and danger.
    So it was with the Ysabel Kid as he rode towards Rosita O’Malley’s place at ten o’clock on the night of his father’s hectic visit. Instead of riding up to the buildings—owned by a good and loyal friend though they might be—he studied them from a distance and made a circle around to take note of everything. Lights glowed at the downstairs’ windows and he could see a number of horses in the corral.
    Slipping
...from the white’s saddle, he led it to some trees beyond the house. Although he removed the headstall and bit, hanging them with the coiled rope on the horn, he left the saddle in place. The horse would remain where he left it, tied or free, while a whistle would bring it to him when needed. So he left it in the cover of the trees, with good grazing under-foot. Silently as an owl hunting in the night sky, the Kid advanced on foot towards the buildings.

Belle Boyd, whose picture is in the WIKI report was actually very plain, andcertainly not an attractive woman, never mind being a raving beauty as the writer portrays her. Nor was she a success as a spy , who did very ,ittle and only for a short time. Edson romances about her, but I'd be sure that he takes his account from her own auto biography which is mainly fiction with no substantive evidence of anything she did.

Two other "beauties", Belle Starr, and Calamity Jane were plain and rather "mannish". Certainly not beauties, although not exactly ugly...Their picures are also intheir WIKI articles.

This stupidity beats anything I've ever read. Taking a measly $15,000, even in the Civil War era (could not materially affect any result) drom a place siad by the most experienced and expert men and to stick it into gunpowder kegs on a fact flowing river in a birch bark canoe, to be blown up by a gunshot. This of course would kill Belle Boyd also.

The writer seems to have really shown that he's a few cents short of a dollar.

This is another foolish error of Edson. I have overlooked many until now. The Union woman is hoping to find evidence that Garfield has helped Rebel spies. Hasn't Belle Boyd already showinh far more than sufficient to tell them that she was in the water , involved with blowing up the warships, and then a little later showing herself at the Embassy, dripping wet, to convince them she had been in the Harbour water. So Garfield is proven to have been helping her.. giving an active spy shelter and more.
