What reading level is The Defense of the Castle a Story of the Siege of An English Castle in the Thir book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The besiegers remained in possession of the outer bailey, the breached outer wall, which they soon after battered down, the inner wall between the towers, and had gained also the gateway that gave access to the inner bailey. The garrison, 1 84 THE DEFENSE OF THE CASTLE however, still retained all the towers, and thus could command the open courts and also the un- protected ramparts. If they did not keep up their attack upon the besiegers, it was because they did not care to invite a renewal of ...the struggle, Hugh's foresight in constructing the diagonal wall across the courtyard was now rewarded, since this fortification enabled the garrison still to command the approaches to the towers. The castle was now converted, so far as its defenders were in posses- sion, into a triangle, at the apex of which stood the great keep, rising high above the other towers. Although the besiegers were now inside the walls, and could bring their men close up against the towers, yet this was a disadvantage as well as an advantage.
