What reading level is Stories of Waterloo : And Other Tales 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Edward, who had been gra- duating at Oxford, was accordingly sent for, and I carried him with me on a visit to Eu- stonby Castle.
The Earl's daughter was young, tolerably well-looking, showily accomplished, and fa- shionably brought up. She assented to her father's project, when it was mentioned, as a matter-of-course transaction of life, and seemed agreeably disappointed when, as her intended husband, a handsome, noble-looking youth was presented. The day passed heavily over. The dinner was gr...and, tedious, and dull. Wines and plate and servants were all arranged to produce effect. I watched Edward narrowly, to see how his mind was affected by this pomp; but his demeanour did not by any means satisfy me. Throughout the evening he was abstract- SARSFIELD. 153 ed and reserved. The hour for retiring at length came, and I beckoned him to follow me to my chamber.
He came. I closed the door, and drew my chair near to his. I commenced with due deliberation an expose of my plans, while I generally recommended an early marriage, as likely to conduce to his happiness, and as being accordant to my own wishes.
