What reading level is The Oxford Movement book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He was a re- served, shy poet, happiest when working as a curate in little parishes in the Cotswold. Mr. Keble's appearance was striking. A contemporary who had no great love for him speaks of him as having "one of the most beautifully formed heads in the world, and most wonderful black eyes"; but over and above his cleverness and his good looks was his absolutely unaffected meekness. Few great men have ever been so humble as he. The "Christian Year" had been published in 1827, and had a widesp...read influence. In twenty-five years a hundred thousand copies had been sold. He became Vicar of Hursley near Winchester in 1836, and there he remained for thirty years doing the work of a faithful parish priest. Yet quiet, buried as he seemed, Mr. Keble was, according to Newman, the true and primary author of the Oxford Movement. As is usual with great motive powers, he was out of sight. He bore his full share of the burdens of the years 1833-1845, and when the crises came in 1845 and 1851, he never lost heart, and with his closest friends.
