What reading level is The Great Events of History : From the Creation of Man Till the Present Time. An Historical Reader book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Fronde war was really over, though its embers smoldered for a year or two longer. De Retz was in prison ; Conde fled to the Spanish armies, with them to draw sword against his country. The parliament submitted ; and in 1653 the triumphant Mazarin became again prime min- ister of France.
During these miserable years of aimless change and bloodshed, the great English revolution reached its crisis. How different was the picture on each side of the narrow sea ! In England, a great national move...ment, whose forces were centralized, and whose aims were directed by one master-mind, proceeded steadily towards a fixed purpose. In France, a jumble of petty street fights and broken laws, with leaders changing sides, and no man seeming to know his own mind, except the crafty Italian fox, who, watch- ing the scrambling crowds, bided his own time for a spring.
A war with Spain, growing out of the Thirty Years' War, continued meanwhile. The renegade Conde, fighting under Spanish colors, was opposed by the gi-eat Marshal Turenne.
