To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But, at the same time, there were other critics who did not treat him with such favour. By some, Crockett, as an author, was merely welcomed, with a veiled sneer, as an accession to the ranks of the " Kail Yaird School of fiction. " In this new School, however, Mr Crockett did not make a long stay. With his romance of "The Raiders" published in 1894, he had left it within a year. This sudden departure from the position to which these critics had considerately assigned him, must have come as a s...urprise to them. And, of the " Kail Yaird " order of romancers, who at that time were the sport of reviewers, we now hear nothing. With the School of Poetry, which in the time of Alex- ander Smith, and Sydney Dobell, was nicknamed "the Spasmodic, " it has gone to oblivion. By the people, " The Raiders " was generally appreciated as a powerful tale of adventures, and stirring incidents. The strong and vigorous writing, lively development of character, and graphic descriptions of scenery, contained in the book, showed the author had talent, and versatility as well.
