What reading level is Ironwork volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is difficult to believe that the design, as a whole, was not, at least indirectly, inspired by the grille at Santa Croce, for though there are no armorial bearings in the iron, old illustrations show that it was once powdered with gilt fleurs-de-lis and roses. The diapered portion of this grille, like most others in England, has its counterpart in France, at Le Puy-en-Velay. Another direct copy in iron of fourteenth-century joinery of Eastern design closes the side entrance to the choir at C...anterbury. It is of much simpler construction, consisting merely of long notched straps of iron placed vertically, with other similar straps crossing them diagonally, and halved and riveted so as to form a rich and essentially Saracenic diaper. The same design, but in wood, occurs at Luxeuil, and has been sketched by Le Due.
It is very obvious that the smith had no hand whatever in the production of such designs as these, and even in their execution his part was quite subordinate, for they are little more than io6 IRON.
