What reading level is West Point Oration book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Young Bayard, so like Ui8 most renowned of his name, that ■'knight above fear and above reproach," was cut off too early for his country, and that excellent staff-officer, Colonel Garesche fell while gallantly doing his duty.
No regiments can spare such gallant, de- voted, and able commanders as Rossell, Davis, Gove, Simmons, Bailey, Putnam, and Kingsbury, — all of whom fell in the thickest of the combat, — some of them veterans, and others young in service, all good men and well-beloved.
Our b...atteries have partially paid theh terrible debt to fate in the loss of such com- manders as Greble, the first to fall in this war, Benson, Ilazzard, Smead, De Hart, Hazlitt, and those gallant boys, Kirby, Woodruff, Dimmick, and Gushing; while the engineers lament the promising and gal- lant Wagner and Cross.
Beneath remote battle-fields rest the corpses of the heroic McRea, Reed, Baseom, Stone, Sweet, and many other company officers.
Besides these were hosts of veteran ser- geants, corporals, and privates, who had fought under Scott in Mexico, or contended in many combats with the savages of the far West and Florida, and, mingled with them, young soldiers who, courageous, steady, and true, met death unflinchingly, without the hope of personal glory.
