What reading level is Joan of Arc book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She was charged by St. Catherine, St. Margaret, and St. Michael with the task of crowning the dauphin king of France. It was the French crown that shimmered always in front of her eyes, and her vision of the head that would wear it may have been blurred by the gold’s ancient luster. The man whom Joan would crown king of France was hardly the proper stuff of a young girl’s dreams. As a man, he wasn’t worth a hair on Joan’s cropped head; as a leader, he was weak, equivocal, and self-serving. Yet i...t was the idea of crowning Charles that inspired Joan to leave her village and to give her life. This devout girl was moved not by a religious goal, not the simple salvation of her soul, the spreading of the Gospel, the conversion of the heathen Turks, or the recovery of the Holy Land. She didn’t want to enter a convent or fast in a desert cave. She didn’t want to inspire the unbelieving or the faint of heart. She wanted to crown a king, and the personality of the man whom she wanted to crown was of little importance to her.
