What reading level is Selected Readings in English History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Fragments of his own books and pictures lay scattered about. On a great tree was cut in big letters, but without any cross, the word Croatan, which was the name of a neighbour- ing island. The captain of the ship was at first willing to take Whit^ to Croatan, but a fierce storm overtook him, and after beating about for some days he insisted upon making for England in spite of the poor man's entreaties. No more did White ever hear of his loved ones. Sixteen years afterwards the settlers at James...town were told by Indians that the white people abandoned at Roanoke had mingled with the natives and lived with them for some years on amicable terms, until at the instigation of certain medicine-men (who probably accused them of witchcraft) they had all been murdered, except four men, two boys, and a young woman, who were spared by request or order of a chief. Whether this young woman was Virginia Dare, the first American girl, we have no means of knowing.
Nothing could better illustrate than the pathetic fate of this little colony how necessary it was to destroy the naval power of Spain before England could occupy the soil of North America.
