What reading level is Ireland, 1494-1868 : With Two Introductory Chapters book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Fitzgibbon knew that the plan of the rebel leaders was not to move until the French had landed; he seems, like Claverhouse, to have deliberately resolved to force insurrection into premature being, and to stifle it in blood before it could obtain aid from abroad. By his counsels more than by those of any other personage, the system of terror which had succeeded in the North, was carried out with infinitely more recklessness and severity in parts of the southern provinces. The yeomanry were let ...loose like banditti ; villages were burned and sacked to get at hidden arms ; the Catholic peasantry were hunted down and plundered ; torture was inflicted on hundreds of ill-fated prisoners. This evil policy, which, be it observed, was denounced by Abercromby, the commander-in-chief of the regular army, and a true soldier, had the result expected from it. It became impossible to await the coming of the French; the people in several counties were driven into revolt ; and the sanguinary rebellion of 1798 broke out on the 23rd of May in that year.
