What reading level is Mr Balfour a Biography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was under the shadow of this exposure, and with the added burden of greatly swollen Naval estimates, that Mr Lloyd George introduced his Budget on the last day of April. It is unnecessary here to recall the provisions of what Mr Balfour's fellow-member for the City of London, ^ described off-hand as * the maddest Budget ever introduced. ' The country has since had experience of really ' confiscatory taxation, ' and in re-reading the debates of the time one is chiefly puzzled to guess why sub...stantial people in the House of Commons, in the City of London, and in the country agreed suddenly to go off their heads — why, for example, Lord Rosebery should be talking about ' revolution ' and ' Socialism: the end of all — the negation of faith, of family, of property, of monarchy, of Empire. ' One could understand Mr Balfour — disappointed that the Government had not been obliging enough to ' broaden the basis, ' as he had suggested — describing the ' Budget speech as an ' electioneering manifesto, ' as ' absolutely grotesque, ' as ' not only grossly unfair but quite unworkable.
