What reading level is The Buried City of the East Nineveh a Narrative of the Discoveries of Mr Laya book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In the north-west angle rises the high pyramid which Xenophon marked, and near which his ten thousand encamped. In the middle of the west side of the mound, is the celebrated north- west palace, where Layard drew his stores of treasm-e. Behind this, in the south-west angle, is the most recent palace hitherto laid open. It is principally built of slabs taken from previously existing edifices. In the next angle, and diagonally opposite to the pyramid at the north-west corner, is an unintelligible... building to which no name has yet been assigned ; it is usually called, after the angle in which it was found, the south-east edifice. A fourth building lies deep in the centre of the mound. Of these the north-west is the only one which has been explored to any extent, and of this no plan can as yet be drawn. The shape of the platform is modified by three ravines which run into it — one between the south-west and south-east edifices, a second to the north of the latter building, and the third immediately to the north of the old palace, a part of which has fallen into it.
