What reading level is History, Its Theory And Practice book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

But they did seek beyond — that is to say, those very historians and philo- sophers sought ; and since they had before them so many episodes and dramas of human life, reconstructed by... their thought, they asked themselves what was the cause of those events, reasonably concluding that such a cause might be one fact or another, a particular fact ; and for this reason they began to distinguish between facts and causes, and, in the order of causes themselves, between cause and occasion, as does Thucydides, or between beginning, cause, and occasion apxr], alria^ irpo^aac';), like Polybius. They thus became involved in disputes as to the true cause of this or that event, and ever since antiquity attempts have been made to solve the enigma of the * greatness ' of Rome, assuming in modern times the guise of a solemn experi- mentum of historical thought and thus forming the diversion of those historians who linger behind.
