What reading level is The Man Behind the Bars book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the warden's office he announced that he was the man guilty of the crime for which Brett was suffering, and that Brett had no part in it. He drew a sketch of the house burglarized not altogether correct gave a succinct account of the whole affair, and declared his readiness to go into court, plead guilty to murder, and accept the sentence, even to the death penalty. Action on this confession was promptly taken. Shannon was sent into court and on his confession alone was sentenced to imprison...ment for life. Brett was overjoyed by this vindication and the expectation of immediate release. But, no; the prosecuting parties were unconvinced by Shannon's confession, which, in their opinion, did not dispose of the evidence against Brett. It was a curious state of affairs, and one per- haps never paralleled, that, while a man's unsup- ported statement was considered sufficient to justify the imposing of a sentence to life impris- onment, this statement counted for nothing as affecting the fate of the other man involved.
