What reading level is The Worlds Greatest Books volume 11 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this perplexity the genius of Mahomet executed a plan of a bold and mar- vellous cast. He transported his fleet over land for ten miles. In the course of one night four-score light galleys and brigantines painfully climbed the hill, steered over the plain, and were launched from the declivity into the shallow waters of the harbour, far above the molestation of the deeper vessels of the Greeks. A bridge, or mole, hastily built, formed a base for one of his largest cannon. The galleys, with tr...oops and scaling ladders, approached the most accessible side of the walls, and, after a siege of forty days, the diminutive garrison, exhausted by a double attack, could hope no longer to avert the fate of the capital.
On Monday, May 28, preparations were made for the final assault. Mahomet had inspired his soldiers with the hope of rewards in this world and the next. His camp re-echoed with the shouts of " God is God ; there is but one God, and Mahomet is the apostle of God " ; and the sea and land, from Galata to the Seven Towers, were illuminated with the blaze of the Moslem fires.
