What reading level is Virtues of War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I have known it since I was seven. It has played before my eyes a thousand times. I have seen this plain in my dreams; I have imagined Darius’s order. This battle, I have fought in imagination all my life. Nothing remains but to live it out in flesh.
We take a day to fortify a camp and to bring up the heavy baggage. Darius holds in place. When I ride down with three squadrons to reconnoiter the field, he does not contest me.
Night descends. I call a council of war. This time I preside myself.
“G...entlemen, we have seen the enemy’s dispositions now. This is good. We are certain today of three things we weren’t yesterday. Let us review them.”
Nothing so steadies a company confronting great odds as a sober recitation of the facts. The more dread-inducing the reality, the more directly it must be faced.
“First, the Persian front is almost entirely cavalry. We see the killing zones the enemy has prepared for his scythed chariots. Clearly, Darius plans to launch them upon our advance.
