To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Another famous conqueror whose army trod this old road was Napoleon. His expedition was organised in Egypt in 1798, and it is interesting to compare its comp>osition and achievements with those of our Desert Column in 1916-17. The force detailed for Syria numbered in all 13,150 men, of whom 10,000 were infantry, 800 cavalry, 1,600 artillery, and the remainder non- combatants and guides. The infantry was formed into four petus divisions^ each of which was therefore much smaller than a modem infa
...ntry brigade. These " divisions *' were commanded by Generals Kleber, Reynier, Bon, and Lannes. One of the Brigadiers was Junot, and the cavalry, artillery, and engineers were commanded by Murat, Dommartin, and CafFarelli respect- ively. Many of these names became household words in later years, but to modem eyes the proportion of Generals seems unduly generous, one to less than a thousand men I Possibly a General was neither so awe-inspiring nor so expensive in those primitive days. The whole army was furnished with 52 guns, of which 36 were field-guns.
