What reading level is William Shakspere a Biography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" He has been a dreary time waiting and petitioning for the place of Master of the Revels. In his own peculiar phraseology he tells the Queen, in one of his petitions, — " For these ten years I have attended with an unwearied patience, and now I know not what crab took me for an oyster, that in the middest of your sunshine, of your most gracious aspect, hath thrust a stone between the shells to rate me alive that only live on dead hopes. " J Drayton described him truly, at a later period, when ...poetry had asserted her proper rights, as "Talking of stoues, stars, plants, of fishes, flies, Playing with words, an 1 idle similiea. " Lyly was undoubtedly the predecessor of Shakspere. His ' Alexander and Campaspe, ' acted not only at Court but at the Blackfriars, was printed as early as 1584. It is not easy to understand how a popular audience could ever have sat it out ; but the incomprehensible and the excellent are sometimes con- founded. What should we think of a prologue, addressed to a gaping pit, and hushing the cracking of nuts into silence, which commences thus?
