What reading level is The Women of the Gael book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

We can not part with Cromwellian days without citing one shining example of woman's heroism. This was Rose O'Doherty, the wife of the great Owen Eoe O'Neill. It was her entreaties that were largely responsible for the transference of his Spanish blade from the Continent to Ireland. It was thus considerably due to her patriotic heart that Ireland wooed back from the military glamour of Europe one of the ablest soldiers that her history can claim. Were it not for most [139] The Women of the Gael ...unlocked for circumstances, the man whom Rose persuaded to come to Ireland would in all prob- ability have accomplished the emancipation of his people. She is assuredly deserving of a dignified position in the pantheon of Irish memory. For this reason we like to believe that patriotic grati- tude enshrined her name in the music of Ireland, where the knowledge of its honour should make doubly dear the haunting melody of Eoisin Dubh. With Eose we leave the blood and iron rule of the dour Puritan behind us, and after watching the sway of Charles II pass away, we find England again thrown into the confusion of a civil war.
