What reading level is A Short History of the Royal Navy.. 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Yet the monarchy could not afford to dispense with these men altogether. The few seamen who had followed the fortunes of the king and Prince Rupert were not numerous enough to supply the staff of a great fleet, while many of them had lost their experience, and had been injured in character by the debauchery which had been one of the main resources of the exiles in idleness.
The Crown, therefore, was compelled to overlook the ante- cedents of the existing body of admirals and captains, and to pi...ck out from them those who were the least likely to prove " factious." Not a few of these men had given serious guarantees to the Crown. Penn had offered his services before sailing to Jamaica in 1654. Montagu and Lawson had taken an active share in the restoration of the king.
We may credit them with an honest conversion to the belief that the choice for England lay between anarchy and the House of Stuart We know from Pepys that Montagu can have had little of what the Cavalier understood by loyalty.
