What reading level is The Fall of Bejar a Texian Tale book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the little band within the fort soon rallied for action, and reserved their fire until the enemy believing few were within, or the fort deserted, marched up in a solid column within a few yards of the outer breastworks. A mo- mentary silence ensued, and nothing was heard but the voice of the giant-like commander of the Mexicans and the tread of the advancing column. Suddenly a poised sword within the Alamo glittered in the moonlight as a sig- nal to the Texians, and the next moment the flas...h of an hundred rifles glared fearfully from the walls of the fortress. The column of the Mexicans was broken and filled alternately by the platoons which marched up to fill the places of those who fell, and at every advance 208 THE FALL OF BEXAR.
they approached nearer to the broad and only entrance to the fort. As the prospect of their entrance increased in probability, the energy of the Texians was redoubled, and they kept up a constant fire. Still the enemy pressed forward notwithstanding the dreadful slaughter, until the commander with a desperate effort leapt into the embrasure, followed by his blood-thirsty and desperate soldiers.
