What reading level is The Hero of Erie Oliver Hazard Perry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Before the landing had been made there had been a procession of boats, rowing minute strokes, and, as an eyewitness describes it, " the slow and regu- lar motion of the oars, striking in exact time with the notes of the solemn dirge, the mournful waving of flags, and the sound of minute guns from the ships presented a striking contrast to the scene of two days before, when both the living and the dead, now form- ing in this solemn and fraternal train, were engaged in fierce and bloody strife. "... As they marched to the place of burial the crews of both fleets followed the mourning officers, and when they ranged about the graves there was to be seen a peculiar sight. Master-Commandant Perry, the hero of Erie, stood there, supporting with his arm the wounded and shattered figure of Commodore Barclay, who leaned heavily against him. The brave officer had insisted upon attending the ceremony, and after it was all over he was taken to Perry's quarters, where the latter waited upon him personally, and sat by his WITHOUT FEAR OR FAVOR.
