What reading level is Our World's Great Benefactors: Short Biographies of the Men And Women Most ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

267 Tradition says so, and his works confirm it. That he attended the quaint old grammar-school, and there obtained a smattering of book learning which to a mind like his became the high-road to something like scholarship, is equally certain. But of his youthful avocations after he had left school, and after his father, hitherto the prosperous glover and wool-stapler, elected chief alderman, and honored of his neighbors, had been overtaken by adversity, we know nothing. Tradition sends him down... to us a glover, a wool-stapler, a butcher's apprentice, a school- master, an attorney's clerk. He may have been any one of these, or he may have been none. It is even open to doubt whether his parents ever occupied the house to which tradi- tion points as his birthplace, while the singling out of its best bedroom as that in which he was born is the merest matter of inference. Why the 23d of April has been fixed upon as the day of his birth there is no record to show. He was baptized on the 26th, which would hardly have been the case had he been born but three days before.
