What reading level is A Talk About Books Addressed Originally to the Students of the Central High Sch book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Though it is old, nothing supersedes it. It is an unequaled, unapproached panorama of more than a thousand years of time, crowded with the most pregnant events, on the central stage of human history. Whatever else you read or do not read, you cannot afford to neglect Gibbon.
A Talk About Books. 19 Of the ages before Gibbon's period, in Roman, Greek, and Oriental history, there is nothing which offers a really large, com- prehensive survey. But Maspero, Sayce, McCurdy, Thirlwall, Grote, Curtius,... Ma- haffy, Mommsen, Merivale, are of the best. For a brief, clear account of the Roman Re- public, sketching its inner rather than its sur- face history, I know of nothing else so good as Horton's History of the Roman People.
Generally, as regards ancient history, there is a warning which I find to be often needed. Within quite recent years the dis- coveries that have been made, by digging into buried ruins of old cities, bringing to light and comparing great numbers of records from the remotest times, preserved by their inscription on earthen tablets and on stone, have so added to and so corrected our knowledge of ancient history that the narratives of the older historians have be- come of little worth.
