What reading level is Worlds Best Histories volume 7 France book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Hampered by the obstinacy and want of discipline ofhis Spanish allies, the English general had relinquished all attempts atdaring, entrenching himself on the defensive. Marshal Soult had notarrived, being unable, he wrote, to effect his operation on the enemy'srear before the beginning of August. On the 27th of July, however, onoccupying the ground before the English positions at Talavera, Victor gaveorders to attack a height which was badly defended, and was driven backwith heavy loss. Marshal... Jourdan insisted on a delay of a few days, toallow Soult time to arrive; but the anxiety of King Joseph, and Victor'simpatience, gained the day, and on the 28th, at daybreak, they attackedthe mamelon, already threatened on the 27th.
Our troops gained the top under the English fire, but Sir Arthur haddoubled the ranks of those in defence, and a terrible charge under GeneralHill compelled the French again to abandon the position.
The check was serious, and the soldiers began to be discouraged. By commonconsent, and without orders given by the leaders, the fight ceased.
