What reading level is Three Years of Naval Warfare book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A heavy list to starboard was immediately taken, and eighteen minutes after the first torpedo had struck her she disappeared beneath the waves, off the Old Head of Kinsale. No fewer than 1198 men, women, and children perished in the space of these few minutes innocent non-combatants who had no share in the war at all and only 787 persons were picked up by THE FIRST SUBMARINE CAMPAIGN 89 torpedo boats, drifters, tugs and fishing smacks, and landed at Queenstown and Kinsale. That many instances o...f splendid heroism are to be recorded is a matter of no sur- prise, but perhaps the most widely known was the brave act of the millionaire Mr. Vanderbilt, who, seeing a little girl without a lifebelt on, took off his own and strapped it on her just as the ship sank, and was never seen again. Many people died later and several bodies were picked up at sea, but fortunately Captain Turner, who sank with his ship, was rescued by a trawler. The German claim that the liner was armed is totally false, and it has been denied both by our Admiralty and by the Customs Officers at New York; a German- American who testified that the ship had four guns mounted, later con- fessed to perjury.
