What reading level is The Lady And the Officer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Howard delivered food baskets to the refugees living on the edge of town. They chatted and sang and listened to the repartee between Eugenia and Major Penrod. That night, neither poverty nor the war intruded on the promise and hope of Christmas.
Elliott spent Christmas Day at home with his father, brother, and a few elderly slaves too old to leave when Lincoln issued his proclamation. Elliott’s home more closely resembled a backwoods farm than the impressive plantation it once had been. But he c...ared naught about the broken fences, fallow fields, dying apple trees, and empty tobacco curing barns. Huge hogsheads once lined the wharf, awaiting shipment overseas or to other parts of the country. Flavored with sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, or honey, Haywood tobacco plugs were the best in the county. A soldier could cut a slice from his plug, rub it to loosen the delicate leaves, and fill his pipe. Considering the quality of army rations, the evening smoke became a man’s sole pleasure.
The Haywood holiday dinner consisted of several rabbits Robert snared along the river, with stringy sweet potatoes, and unpalatable baked apples.
