What reading level is That Island book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This Order was issued, for stationing cutters and cruisers in the harbours and on the coasts of the Island; any enforcement of this order would have been an illegal aggression of the sovereign rights of the Duchess Charlotte, as insular jurisdiction had been so far respected by the English Government, to the extent of three leagues from the Manx coasts. There can be no doubt that the Order in Council was issued for the prime purpose of coercing the Duke to settle.
On the 25th August 1764, the D...uke replied to the Treasury in such terms, that indicated that he declined making a specific proposition, on the grounds that it was impossible for him to fix an adequate price, beLng? only in possession of the Island for a few months. However, he stated that he was ready to receive a proposal from their Lordships.
The Treasury addressed a second communication to the Duke on the 1 2th September, in which they asked for full information as to the value of every branch of revenue in the Island. Again the Duke did not receive adequate time to reply to this letter, and while he was still collecting together the required information, a third letter was sent by the Treasury, in which it was stated that the British Government now declined to go any further into a treaty, as their intentions could best be served by an Act of Parliament.
