What reading level is The Making of a Gunner book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And somehow, with its passing, we felt that we had all at once become seasoned veterans ; like the cargo-tramp in Kipling's story, we had found ourselves. No longer were we a collection of separate individuals, all training at our own particular job, each anxious that he should be undisturbed to carry out his own duties. No longer jealousy or scorn existed between one section and another, between the gun detachments and the specialists, between the old soldiers and the new. We were a Battery, c...omplete and homogeneous, the error of one man touched the honour of the whole, brilliant achievements were not those of individuals but of the Battery. As a complete unity we hence- forth thought and spoke, we, a newly formed unit, had become in six months of strenuous training, but more especially in the few days of our sojourn in France, a far closer corporation than we should ever have become in the unlimited years of peace.
The subsequent history of the Battery is briefly told. It took part in the affair of Loos, was moved shortly afterwards to another position, whence it bore its share of the operations about Hulluch that followed.
