What reading level is Great Tales From English History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the contrary, his death revived the Great Charter - along with the fortunes of the monarchy. John’s heir was his nine-year-old son Henry, and the prospect of this child being in charge of England somehow purged the bitterness between Crown and barons. The country’s quarrel had been with John, and few people had welcomed the French army that had come to the aid of the rebels. It is often said that no foreign army has set foot on English soil since 1066, but from May 1216 French troops were tra...mping over much of south-east England, and during John’s last desperate months Louis, the son of the French king, was holding court in London.
To win over domestic opinion and help get rid of the French, who finally departed in September 1217, the young Henry III’s guardians rapidly reissued the Great Charter - in modified form. They reworded or deleted a number of clauses, removing the controversial watchdog council of twenty-five barons that had sparked the civil war, but promised that the new king would rule according to the remaining provisions.
