What reading level is The Road to Rome book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. .The north African coast, winter 47/46 BC The sea was calm now, a different creature to the monster that had battered Caesar’s ships on the three-day crossing from Lilybaeum in Sicily. Under a clear blue sky, gentle waves rolled in, rocking the two dozen or so anchored triremes and flat-bottomed transports that lined the shore. Soldiers disembarked, gratefully jumping down into the shallow water before being handed their kit by their comrades. Using special timber frames, horses were lifted fr...om the holds and then lowered into the sea. Their riders then led them ashore. Sacks of foodstuffs, spare equipment and dismantled ballistae were passed hand over hand by chains of legionaries to the ground above the waterline. Under the close supervision of a quartermaster with a tally sheet, they were piled in neat stacks.
Further inland, the playing-card shape of a camp had been marked out; Caesar’s tent and the pavilion for the headquarters had been pitched first, their positions in the centre marked by a red vexillum.
