To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The Civil War, which divided the English people at home, compelled those in Maryland to array them- selves on hostile sides, either for the Protector or Pretender. Clayborne's Rebellion kept the country disturbed during the better part of three years.
The bold and unscrupulous Captain Ingle seized the colony in the name of the Puritan parliament of England, and sent home the aged Jesuit Father White in irons. When the Commonwealth was established, its commissioners in Maryland acted in a most i
...ntolerant manner, allowing no Catholics to have a seat in the legislature. They repealed the statute of toleration and prohibited Catholic wor- ship. The old story of the poor cony that invited the hedgehog into its hole on a rainy day, only to be driven out, was enacted over again. The name of Puritan was disgraced by bigotry and intol- erance.
