What reading level is Bill Nye's Comic History of England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Olaf, who led the Norwegians against England, afterwards became king of Norway, and with the Danes used to ever and anon sack Great Britain, — i.e., eat everybody out of house and home, and then ask for a sack of silver as the price of peace.
Ethelred was a cowardly king, who liked to wear the implements of war on holidays, and learn to crochet and tat in time of war. He gave these invaders ten thousand pounds of sil- THE DANISH OLIGARCHY, 6l ver at the first, sixteen thousand at the second, an...d twenty-four thousand on the third trip, in order to buy pieace.
Olaf afterwards, however, embraced Christian- ity and gave up fighting as a business, leaving the ring entirely to Sweyn, his former partner from Denmark, who continued to do business as before.
The historian says that the invasion of England by the Norwegians and Danes was fully equal to the assassination, arson, and rapine of the Indians of North America. A king who would permit such cruel cuttings-up as these wicked animals were guilty of on the fair face of old England, should live in history only as an invertebrate, a royal failure, a decayed moUusk, and the dropsical head of a tottering dynasty.
