What reading level is The Present Military Situation in the United States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Evarts, loyally sup- ported by President Grant, in 1871, we arbi- trated the Alabama claims with entire satis- faction to both sides; later, in 1907, thanks to the genius and forensic ability of Elihu Root, we arbitrated the fishery disputes, which had more than once brought us to the verge of war during the hundred years that they had remained unsettled. But the skill of Jef- 30 MILITARY SITUATION ferson, Madison, and Monroe, all ardent ad- vocates of peace and of the futility of prep- aration... for war, were insufficient to keep us from going to war with England in 1812 over the question of the impressment of our sea- men. So that, looking at the history of Eng- land for the last 160 years, I think we are not justified in believing that the present happy relations between the two great Eng- lish-speaking peoples are so certain to con- tinue that it is not necessary to give any thought to what we should do in the un- happy contingency that they might be broken.
