What reading level is Temples Ancient And Modern Or Notes On Church Architecture book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The pulpit and commu- nion-table are placed on the long side, that they may not remind any one of the chancel and altar ; the aisles are mere alleys, running between the pews and across the building, as the case required ; the long columns extending to the roof have disappeared ; and all traces of the church, as it exists in Europe, are lost in the plain and puritanical meeting-houses of our ancestors. The churches which have been erected within the last half century are, with few exceptions, r...ather modifications of the first plain meeting-houses than imitations of the European churches. Still, the tendency has been towards the church style of building. The pulpit is now placed at the extremity of the room ; the aisles begin to be distinguished ; occasionally, tall columns are found, dividing the interior into aisles, and supporting the roof ; and the entrance is at the front. With these changes also have been introduced the tall windows reaching to the whole height of the edifice ; whereas the old houses of worship were always divided into as many as two, and sometimes even into three, stories.
