What reading level is Three Days in Reconquered Alsace book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Amer- ican is the big friend. He goes and hunts out the village youngsters to initiate them in the mysteries of baseball. In return, they teach him the French they have just learnt. It is a delightful sight to see a child of Alsace, in a field just won back, teaching French to the sons of Illinois or Massa- chusetts squatting dow r n around him.
In one of the schools which the pupils have just left, the American General has set up his head-quarters. He receives us there, in these humble sch...olastic surroundings that he has changed as little as may be. He has pinned on a black-board the map of the sector which is to be entrusted to him, a map on which the net-work of trenches looks like the veins on the skin. But all around him there still hang on the wall pictures, recapitulatory tableaux, mottoes, and prescriptions, everything that the master sets before the eyes of his pupils to fix it in their hearts and minds. And here, between a Declaration of the Rights of Man and a picture preaching economy, is an engraving representing Rouget de Lisle declaim- ing the Marseillaise in Dietrich's house.
