What reading level is With Lord Stratford in the Crimean War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Another detachment, under the orders of naval officers, was composed of sailors, Greek volunteers, and four battalions of soldiers. The first column was marched against the French right, and the second against the English line defended by the Gordon and Chapman batteries. These Russian troops greatly outnumbered the French and English forces which they attacked. A battalion of Zouaves was the first to perceive the enemy, advancing silently in the dark. Two general volleys, promptly delivered by... it, committed great havoc among the Russians, who had not expected so ready a resistance, and they halted in confusion. General Krulef quickly rallied his men, and brought them on in double time, with bayonets fixed, over their dead and dying comrades. The charge was repulsed, and the Zouaves, followed by the whole French force, dashed after the retreating enemy. Major Banon, whom I knew well, was in command of the Zouaves, and fell dead with a bullet through the lungs. Major Dumas, chief Engineer officer of the French trench, received two bayonet wounds in the shoulder, but still stood on a gabion, cheering on IN THE CRIMEAN WAR.
