THIS QUOTE (When the smoke had cleared away and we could obtain a fair view of the field, it looked, at

the first glance, like a sea of blood. It was not blood itself which gave it this appearance

but the red coats in which the British soldiers were dressed. Straight out before our

position, for about the width of space which we supposed had been occupied by the

British column, the field was entirely covered with prostrate bodies. In some places they

were laying in piles of several, one on the top of the other.")

ANSWER CHOICES

A= Because there were so many red uniformed soldiers lying on the field.
