What reading level is The Proud And the Free book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But it was no such peace as the Jersey Line made; even at the end, they took no liberties with the foreign brigades, but kept their word – all men who had served more than three years were free to leave if they chose to leave. The terms were our terms, but they were terms for departure not for remaining. Our terms for remaining were that we should choose our own officers, and that we should be clothed like human beings and fed and paid; this they would not or could not accept, but our Committee ...had an obligation to the men and the men were sick to their hearts with service under the gentry for the gentry’s way of fighting a war.
So, still holding the Line intact and under arms, we paraded once again and formed up foursquare on the meadow at Princeton, on a cold winter afternoon with the snow clouds building up in the east. In a way, that was the end, although there is more to tell that must be told; for there at Princeton was the last time the regiments, the riflemen and the artillery company of the Pennsylvania Line stood together at dress formation to listen to the drums beating and see the old regimental flags flying and hear the order of the day read out.
