What reading level is Personal Sketches of His Own Times volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even so early as 1798 his talents and popularity seemed to me to have commenced a slow but obvious declension. By seceding from parliament in the preceding year, he had evacuated the field of battle and that commanding eminence from whence he had so proudly repulsed all his enemies. His talents, it is true, for a while, survived ; but his habits of life became con- tracted ; his energies were paralysed ; his mind rambled ; he began to prose ; and, after his appointment to the Eolls, the world s...eemed to be closing fast upon him.
My intimacy with Curran was long and close. I knew every turn of his mind and every point of his capacity. He was 206 barpjngton's peesonal sketches not fitted to pursue the niceties of detail ; but his imagination was infinite, his fancy boundless, his wit indefatigable. There was scarce any species of talent to which he did not possess some pretension. He was gifted by Nature with the faculties of an advocate and a dramatist ; and the inferior but ingenious accomplishment of personification, without mimicry, was equally familiar to him.
