What reading level is A History of Everyday Things in England 1066 1799 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Dresses were slowly becoming stiffer, more un- gainly, and more covered with ornament, until the climax came in the shape of the monstrous wheeled farthingale, which came into being towards the latter half of Elizabeth's reign, and lasted well on into the reign of James i. This farthingale consisted of a very full gathered skirt which was stretched out over a large hoop round the hips, falling from that, straight to the ground a very ungainly and ugly fashion. Bodices were stiff and peaked, and... amongst wealthy women embroidered with gold and jewels to an extraordinary degree (see Fig. 6). Ruffs are of Spanish origin. They began as cambric collars (notice the second man's costume), and became larger . And more pleated and wired, until similar to those on the third couple in the picture ; these, however, are very moderate, both in shape and size. Special sticks were used to plait these ruffs, called pokesticks. An alternative fashion to this was the wearing of large fan-like collars, made in lawn or cambric, these materials being first brought to England in this reign.
