To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even so, in ad- dition to these, similar books and documents were constantly procured from abroad — and for a long time continued to be — because there were not enough printing-houses in the Peninsula to produce them in sufficient quantities. As in other parts of the \\'orld, monasteries established printing- offices in their precincts, and some of the secular clergy were themselves printers ; while among higher ecclesiastics there were many who bore the expense of printing their own works, or ...who paid the cost of printing the works of others. Haebler believes that more books were published by the aid of the clergy in Spain than in any other country where printing existed prior to the Reformation. It has just been said that printing was introduced in Spain as a developed art ; and it is for that reason that al- most all Spanish books have "signatures" — a feature which appeared rather late in English typography. Initials engraved on wood are to be found in Spain almost as early as any- where else.
