What reading level is The Standard Bearer a Story of Army Life in the Time of Caesar book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When their first line had been cut down by the Romans, the next foremost rank climbed upon the dead mass and fell fighting with the same reckless desperation.
And so the battle raged. The Roman short swords continued to work back and forth like the shuttles of a loom, seeking the sinewy flesh of the barbarians, letting forth blood and vitals; the Roman javelins from the rear fell on the heads of the Nervians, crushing their skulls, piercing faces, throats, and breasts, all made a veritable sham...bles.
The Nervians stood their ground, wielded their heavy swords, and wrenched from the quivering bodies of their friends and brothers the Roman javelins, and furiously hurled them back upon the mailed mass of the legions. And steadily the heaping rows of dead rose higher until only a miserable handful of the Nervians re- mained alive. Then, at last, they broke and fled.
Meanwhile, Caius had held the eagle aloft and pro- tected Baculus with the aid of some three or four legionaries that Baculus summoned to the defense of Caius and the eagle.
