What reading level is The American Catholic Quarterly Review book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Patrick is always in order and always welcome, but it has a special fitness at this time, when the intellectual, industrial and political revival in Ireland is assuming large and lasting propor- tions. The study of the life of their apostle and patron will fill Irish- men at such a time with the true spirit — ^the desire to advance their temporal interests in such a manner as to conserve their eternal wel- fare. They can do this only by holding fast to that sterling faith and morality which the...y have received from their ancestors, and which they learned from St. Patrick, and which they preserved at every sacrifice. But let the author speak : "Our chief purpose in writing this new life of St. Patrick, when so many lives already exist, is to give a fuller, and we venture to hope, more exact account of the saint's missionary labors in Ireland than any that has appeared since the Tripartite Life was first written.
For this purpose we have not only studied Origan's great work and made ourselves familiar with the really valuable publications of our own times, but we have, when practicable, personally visited all the scenes of the saint's labors, both at home and abroad, so as to be able to give a local coloring to the dry record, and also to catch up, as far as possible, the echoes, daily growing fainter, of the once vivid traditions of the past.
