What reading level is A History of the Criminal Law of England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The result is that the substantive EDWARD I. — HENRY VII. 203 part of the criminal law appears to have varied very little Ch, XXI.
during this period. A certain number of the cases decided turn upon the definition of crimes, and throw some light upon our present law, but the immense majority relate to matters of practice long since obsolete. Most of them turn upon details about appeals. The other subjects which occur most frequently are forfeitures, abjuration, fines and amercements inflicted o...n townships ; but upon the whole this body of decisions conveys the impression that the unwritten law as to crimes varied little from the days of Bracton to those of Henry VIII. It was still composed of a few vague definitions of the grosser crimes, but I suspect that it hardly provided for the minor offences at all, except by the vague and arbitrary system of fining to which I have referred, but which seems to have been greatly restricted and to have fallen much into disuse during this period.
