What reading level is Heraldic Anomalies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He is rather sharp upon Calvin, and I really think with great reason, on the following occasion. The Author of the Ecclesiastical His- tory of the Reformation of France, relating the speech of Lord Rochefort at the Assembly of the Estates under Charles the Ninth, in the year Digitized by VjOOQIC QUAKERS. 261 1660, observes, that this harangue was well re- marked, in that he used not the word (Majesty) invented by flatterers of late years. " And yet, says Barclay, this Author minded not how his ...Master Calvin used \hi% fluttering title to Francis the First, King of France ; and not only so, but calls him Most Christian King, in the Epistle to his Institutions ; though by Francis's daily per- secuting of the Reformers, it was apparent, he was far from being such even in Calvin's own esteem." I confess, this Epistle of Calvin has always struck me as a very extraordinary one, nor do I wonder that Barclay should notice it as he does, considering his principles in regard to titles, and the remark above of the Author of the History of the Reformation ; for if the omission of the word Majesty, a title, which as I have before observed, Selden pronounced to be par- ticularly unexceptionable, as expressing only ** greaterness," appeared so commendable in the case alluded to, it cannot but seem extraordinary, that the very chief of the French Reformers, should, as he really has done, load Francis the First with titles, not merely in the comparative degree, but constantly superlative ; not only styling him Christianissimus, most Christian, in Digitized by VjOOQIC 262 QUAKBirs.
