What reading level is A Dictionary of English Church History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Ihere are fifty-one titles (not numbered, unfortunately, for refer- ence), and aU but the last (which is only a schedule of rules of law) are divided again into chapters. The whole work is set forth as proceeding from the King's mouth, and the subjects range from the Holy Trinity and the CathoUc faith (tit. I. ) to such matters as dilapidations of churches and vicarages (tit. Sv. ). There is, however, no surrender of ecclesiastical jurisdiction to the civil power. In tit. Xhv. , for example, vi...olence used towards a clergyman is treated as an atrocious crime, involving excommunication of the oflFender ; from which he can only be relieved by fxill discharge of such penance as the ordinary shall think fit to impose.
The authority on which the whole is set forth is curiously indicated in Chapter i. Of the very first title : De fide Christiana ah omnibus am'plectenda et profiienda. The language, translated from the Latin, is as follows : — ' As aU royal power and adminis- tration of laws is derived from God, we must take our beginning from God, whose nature being first set forth truly, it will be easier to foresee the rest of those laws which we have procured to be enacted for the conservation of the state of the Church.
