What reading level is The French Revolution; a Short History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These were the men who mostly drifted, and, as the Mountain triumphed, threw into it many more or less sincere recruits.
The first business of the new assembly was pressing; it did not comport much variation of opinion. The constitutional question must be settled; and so a vote, immediately taken, pronounced the fall of the monarchy. Even at this moment, however, there was no enthu- siasm for a republic and there was no formal pronouncement that France accepted that re- gime. Yet in fact she ha...d; and on the fol- lowing day the Convention, in further decrees, assumed the existence of the Republic to be an established fact.
There was a question, however, even more burning, because more debatable, than the fall of the monarchy; and this was the massacres, and beyond the massacres, the policy of the party that had accepted them. The great ma- jority of the deputies on arriving in Paris from the provinces had been horror-struck. Lan- juinais said: "When I arrived in Paris, I shuddered!" Brissot and the Girondins put that feeling of the assembly behind their policy.
