To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Day and night the work goes on. Frequently attacks are made at night. Sometimes, these are attempts to captiu-e a certain trench or piece of trench. In such cases, the attacking force crawls quietly out of its trench in the direction of the one it intends to attack, and when discovered, or at the barbed wire entanglement, rises to its feet and rushes on the trench. This always results in fierce little fights in which the bayonet inevitably is used. The defenders who remain in a trench long enou...gh to resist with the bayonet are nearly always killed or badly wounded. If the attack succeeds, the trench sometimes is held, in which case the captors work feverishly to connect it with their own trenches and to blockade the communicating trenches lead- ing to the enemy's trench. Sometimes the attack- ers get the trench, only to be driven out again. At other times the attack is on the head of a sap in the process of construction, in which case the object is generally to kill or drive out the workers HOW ARMIES ENTRENCH 265 and to destroy as much as possible of the work done.
