What reading level is John De Witt, Grand Pensionary of Holland; Or, Twenty Years of a Parliamentary Republic book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The latter, while informing him tardily, though without giving him any precise orders to remain at his post, that ' the Prince of Orange had given the command of Nimeguen to Welderen, lieutenant-general of cavalry, thus sparing htm that trouble,' explains to him, on the other hand, that the fear of an attack on the Yssel, consequent upon a false alarm, had caused a delay in the despatch of the reinforcements promised to him.
He announces, moreover, that they will be reduced to three regiments, ...of which only one will be infantry, and in a post- script written the following night he adds that ' after having despatched these regiments on their way, the Prince of Orange now finds it necessary to recall them.' Disheartened by this desertion, Montbas gave up all idea of disputing the passage with the hostile army if any attempt were made to force it. So long as he believed he had only a feigned attack to repulse, he did his duty. A detachment of two squadrons accompanied by a hundred dragoons, com- manded by Saint Abre, had appeared in the neighbourhood of the Ehine, near Tolhuys, on June 10, and had imprudently ventured to cross the river, at the risk of giving the alarm.
