What reading level is Elizabeth And Essex: a Tragic History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Essex kept something of his boyishness to the end, but he could not escape the rigours of time, and now a new scene - a scene of peril and gravity appropriate to manhood - was opening before him.
The circumstances of a single family - it has happened more than once in English history - dominated the situation. William Cecil, Lord Burghley, who had filled, since the beginning of the reign, the position of Prime Minister, was over seventy; he could not last much longer; who would succeed him...? He himself hoped that his younger son, Robert, might step into his place. He had brought him up with that end in view. The sickly, dwarfed boy had been carefully taught by tutors, had been sent travelling on the Continent, had been put into the House of Commons, had been initiated in diplomacy, and gently, persistently, at every favourable moment, had been brought before the notice of the Queen. Elizabeth's sharp eye, uninfluenced by birth or position, perceived that the little hunchback possessed a great ability.
