What reading level is Harold : the Last of the Saxon Kings — Complete book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nor was Edward himself hostile to Harold, whom alone of that House, as we have before said, he esteemed and loved.
Harold was at once named Earl of Wessex; and relinquishing the earldom heheld before, he did not hesitate as to the successor to be recommended inhis place. Conquering all jealousy and dislike for Algar, he united thestrength of his party in favour of the son of Leofric, and the electionfell upon him. With all his hot errors, the claims of no other Earl, whether from his own capaci...ties or his father's services, were so strong;and his election probably saved the state from a great danger, in theresults of that angry mood and that irritated ambition with which he hadthrown himself into the arms of England's most valiant aggressor, Gryffyth, King of North Wales.
To outward appearance, by this election, the House of Leofric--uniting infather and son the two mighty districts of Mercia and the EastAnglians--became more powerful than that of Godwin; for, in that lastHouse, Harold was now the only possessor of one of the great earldoms, and Tostig and the other brothers had no other provision beyond thecomparatively insignificant lordships they held before.
