What reading level is The Dutch And the Iroquois book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They were the tiers etat, whose liberties had hardly been regarded by either nobles or townsmen. These farmers were of very humble and patient character, thrifty on smallest incomes, able and willing to live hard, to amass meager gains, to look carefully after pennies or groschen, to live peaceably with all men, without fierceness, chivalry, or pride, but not without sauer- kraut and beer. Contrasted with the fiery Latin races, they were insensible to the disturbances of imagination which encum...bered their progress. They had no broad plains in Holland, where a party of forty knights, barbaric as Saracens, could ride down and slaughter forty thousand Jacquerie ; or, had there been such, they would have been the suffering peasants and not the vain-glorious knights. They had the virtues of contented, toiling agricul- turists, and such victories as were dear to them had been mostly won by the Fabian policy of patient en- durance. Or, compared with the English, they were free from the fierce conscience of the Puritans, and the loose consciences of the others.
