What reading level is Media, Babylon And Persia: Including a Study of the Zend Avesta From the ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It was probably in reliance on his secret intelligences in the capital that he hurried his first attempt, of which the great cylinder gives an account : " In the ninth year (546 B.C.), Nabu-nihid the king was in Tevd * ; the king's son, officers, and army were in Accad." The king's eldest son Bel-SHAR-UZZUR (the Belshazzar of the Bible) is here meant, whom his father had asso- ciated with himself in the government, much in the same way that Esarhaddon shared the royal power with his son Asshurb...anipal. We have a small cyl- inder, found in the temple of the Moon-god at Ur (Mugheir), with a very fervent prayer addressed to that god on behalf of himself and his son by Nabon- idus: "As for me, Nabu-nahid, king of Babel, in the fulness of thy great divinity, grant me length of life, to remote days, and for Belshazzar, my first-born son, the desire of my heart. Reverence for thy * Tevjl is thought to be a separate quarter of Babylon, — perhaps the new quarter built by Nebuchadrezzar, on the west bank of the Euphrates.
