What reading level is The Struggle in Flanders On the Western Front, 1917 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"Don't mind about me," said the machine-gunner of the Northamptons.
"Smash my gun and get back." There was no time for both, so the gun was smashed and the wounded man stayed on the wrong side of the bank.
The fighting lasted for an hour and a half after the be- ginning of the infantry attack. It was over at 8.30. The wounded sergeant of the Northamptons who swam back saw the last of the struggle. He saw a little group of his own ofBcers, not more than six of them, surrounded by marine bombers,... fighting to the end with their revolvers.
The picture of these six boys out there in the sand, with their dead lying around them, refusing to yield and fight- ing on to a certain death, is one of the memories of this war that should not be allowed to die.
Over the Yser Canal men were trying to swim, men dripping with blood and too weak to swim, and men who could not swim. Some gallant fellow on the Nieuport side — there is an idea that it was a Lancashire man — swam across with a rope under heavy fire and fixed it so that men could drag themselves across.
