What reading level is A Short History of the English People, volume 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The French re- mained masters of all Spain save Cadiz and the eastern provinces, and even the east coast was reduced in 181 1 by the vigour of General Suchet. While England thus failed to rescue Spain from the aggression of Napoleon, she was suddenly brought face to face with the result of her own aggression in America. The Orders in Council with which Canning had attempted to prevent the transfer of the carrying trade from English to neutral ships, by compelling all vessels on their way to por...ts under blockade to touch at British harbours, had at once created serious em- barrassments with America. In the long strife between France and England, America had already borne much from both combatants, but above all from Britain. Not only had the English Govern- ment exercised its right of search, but it asserted a right of seizing English seamen found in American vessels ; and as there were few means of discriminating between English seamen and American, the sailor of Maine or Massachusetts was often im- pressed to serve in the British fleet.
