What reading level is A History of the Irish Presbyterians book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Many of the people, driven by hunger to despair, banded together to break down the newly made fences — from which they were termed Levellers. Some who wore shirts over their clothing for a disguise were called Whiiehoijs. All the members of these societie. S were bound by an oath. The}' went round the country at night, destroying the cattle which grazed on " evicted" farms, and killing their owners, wdiom they sometimes stripped naked, and with barbarous cruelty, buried alive in pits filled wit...h thorns. Tlie Whiteboys of the South were Roman Catholics, but high rents, hateful tithes, and landlord oppression caused the Protestants of Ulster to form similar combinations. About 1763, the Hearts of Oak took their rise in County Armagh. The immediate cause of this movement was the imposition of cesses ^n farmers for making roads to accommodate landlords. At these works, even the poorest house- holder had to give a certain number of days' labour every year. The Hearts of Oak soon spread to other districts and continued their outrages.
