What reading level is The Marne Campaign book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The French 4th Army. — Fierce though the fighting had been on either side of the marshes of St. Gond, it is a ques- tion whether the 4:th French Army had not to withstand attacks equally savage in nature. In that army the 2nd Corps was heavily attacked by two corps of the Duke of Wiirtemberg's IVth Army. One of them, pushing forward from the line Sermaize — Contrisson, endeavoured to wheel to its right and thus roll up the right flank of the 4th Army, while the other held the 2nd Corps in front.... So severe was the pressure, especially on the French right, that General Langle de Cary was compelled to call upon the 3rd Army for assistance. Fortunately the arrival of the 15th Corps on the previous evening enabled General Sarrail to comply with this request, although in view of his own situation the force which he was able to spare was com- paratively small. Nevertheless one brigade of the 15th Corps, crossing the Marne and heading south of Contrisson, produced some effect, menacing as it did the left flank of the German corps, and it was assisted by the attacks which General Sarrail delivered with his left.
