What reading level is Walks in Rome, volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The God of Fire was thus accorded a central and prominent locality in the Forum, not perhaps to be wondered at when we reflect how severely at all periods Rome suffered from his vengeance. Augustus restored the altar of the god in 9 B.C., and gave him a statue (perhaps merely to beautify further the neighbourhood of his pet museum, the Temple of 'Concordia'), with an inscription saying that the emperor dedi- cated it in the year of Rome 745 from money received as a New Year's gift whilst absent... from the city. This inscription is now amongst the Farnese marbles at Naples.
Below the Vulcanal, and just behind the Arch of Severus, is the site of the Temple of Concord, founded by Camillus, 367 b.c., in order to celebrate the reconciliation of Patricians and Plebeians, and the concession to the latter of the right to elect a consul. It was rebuilt and dedicated with blasphemous inappropriateness, 121 B.C., by the consul Opimius, immediately after the murder of Caius Gracchus. Here Cicero pronounced his fourth oration against Catiline before the Senate.
