What reading level is A Memoir of Sebastian Cabot book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


A less agreeable conjecture is suggested by the character of Henry VII. That shrewd and penurious monarch may have been influenced by the same feeling which induced Ferdinand of Spain to rid himself of Columbus, whose high estimate of what he had effected was found to mingle, incon veniently, with all his proposals for following up the Great Discovery. Henry may have preferred to listen to those with whom a bargain might be made solely in reference to prospective services. Avarice, a disease to
... which he was constitutionally subject and of which the symptoms became every year more apparent, had now reached his moral sense. Bacon, who wrote his History under the eye of James, a lineal descendant and professed admirer of that monarch, could not disguise the evidence of the infamous devices to which Henry resorted for the purpose of extorting money from his own subjects. Speaking of his escape from the difficulties which at one time beset him* and particularly from the long and vexatious feuds with Scotland, it is remarked Wherefore nature, which many times is happily contained and refrained by some bands of fortune, began to take place in the King ; carrying, as with ft strong tide, his affections and thoughts unto the gathering and heaping up of treasure.
