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

I liked to talk with the wounded men because among them I found a spirit unequaled. One young fellow, leaning on crutches and sup- porting one crutch by a stump of an arm while nursing a bad head-wound, said he WHY WE FOUGHT 35 would have preferred a grave in France, but added, " At last the world, has learned the lesson that wars must end. " It was from su...ch scenes of hopefulness as this that I went to the United States Senate, and there, to my utter dismay, I found that the very principles were being condemned for which American soldiers have been giving their lives.
