What reading level is The Countess of Huntingdon And Her Circle book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
gentle and sensi- tive, who never knew a father's protecting care, with a mother (of whom the daughter seems to have always stood greatly in awe), hard and irre- sponsive, while the girl was soon to part from her young sister, her only other near relation with whom she had hitherto shared every pleasure and trouble of her life. From the beginning of Lady Glenorchy's married life her biographer* refers to her heavy and continu- ous domestic trials, although he does not once mention their nature,... leaving the inferences to be drawn from the simple declaration of Lord Glenorchy's unworthiness. Readers of a future generation are left to conjecture if the excessive drinking and gambling with the open profligacy of the time had to do with the rarely-lifted cloud which rested on all the years of Lady Glenorchy's married Ufe. One * T. S. Jones. 145 THE COUNTESS OF HUNTINGDON is tempted to the conclusion from the fact that the couple, though they had other residences assigned to them, lived for the most part with the husband's father, a powerful, masterful Scotch nobleman — because his mere presence might serve as a shield to his daughter-in-law from the consequences of his son's vices.
