What reading level is Scandinavian Britain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Next year they sailed up the Medway, besieged Rochester and plundered in Kent. In this they were probably within the meaning of the act, as they understood it:* the west, and Kent, were not the country they had under- taken to guard ; and it is to be borne in mind that we have the story from one side only. There was evasion of payment on several occasions in (he account of Saxon dealings with the Vikings; and the local jealousies of England suggest that one district was sometimes not entirely d...ispleased to see another victimised.
It has been suggested (Sir J. Ramsay, Foundations of England^ p. 340) that the Scandinavian settlements in the Lake district date from this time : Thietmar of Merseburg speaks of territory assigned to invading bands for permanent occupation, and J6stein and Guthmund henceforward disappear from history "as if they had found comfortable quarters somewhere." But the Lake district was not in ^Ethelred's realm ; the quarters assigned seem to have been in and near Southampton, ^thelred ravaged Cumberland a few years later, as he would hardly have done if SVEIN AND KN^JT 151 settlers in his pay and on lands granted by him had occupied it.
