What reading level is Wonder Women in History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So a clever and very pretty ruse for attracting the monarch's attention fell through.
Jeanne could not cope with her powerful rival. Her own partisans were not strong enough to risk punish- ment by appearing openly as the favourite's enemies. So, for a time, the campaign languished.
It sprang into fresh life some months later, when Madame de Chateauroux died. A new plan of attack was mapped out. The opening gun was to be fired on the occasion of a masked ball at the Hotel de Ville.
This ball wa...s in honour of the marriage of Louis' son to the Infanta Maria Theresa. It was to be a mixed affair, nobles of the Court mingling for once with the richer bourgeoisie and their wives. The latter welcomed joyously the chance to meet women of rank on equal terms, and came by hundreds to the ball, decked out in garish jewels and gaudy attire.
Oh, devotees of commonsense apparel, the skirts and petticoats of a Court dress in the middle of the eighteenth century weighed no less than forty pounds ! The jam was so great, the heat was so unbearable, the dresses were so heavy, at this particular ball, that several women died Wonder Women Page 130 before they could be carried out of the place.
