What reading level is Valley of the Shadow: a Novel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He had not wanted it put to the torch so soon, merely readied. His order either had been misunderstood or had been flawed—a possibility he could not discount, given his weariness.No matter the fault, it was his responsibility, and he accepted it. He long had believed that the lowest thing an officer could do was to blame his subordinates for his mistakes and failures. He had seen enough of that out west, under Halleck.The worst of it was that more than two hundred infantrymen, a mix of raw Home ...Brigade men and a detachment of Ricketts’ Vermonters, were all but cut off on the other side, their only path to safety the open deck of the rail bridge.Nor did he want them to panic and quit the fight. They were buying time cheaply, measured against the great scale of the war. He understood, full well, that it didn’t seem much of a bargain to the men in combat along that rail embankment or defending the blockhouse, but they were doing heroic work in a hard hour. He hoped the veterans would prop up the morale of the Home Brigade soldiers sufficiently to keep them potting Confederates.They had done surprisingly well thus far, repelling every probe, as well as an attack that came sneaking along the river.
