What reading level is A Manual of Church History volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The canon reads, according to the Greek text: CHAP. 111. ] RISE AND GROWTH OF PAPAL POWER 395 Let the ancient usages which exist in Egypt, and Libya, and Pen- tapolis, remain in force, to the effect that tiie bishop of Alexandria should have authority over all these, since this [the exercise of au- thority over the provincial churches of the West] is customary also for the bishop who is in Rome ; and similarly, both as to Antioch and in the other provinces, let the churches have their privilege...s secured to them.
A clause was interpolated into this canon in the in- terest of the Roman primacy as follows: "Rome has always held the primacy. " This interpolation was first used, so far as we know, by the representatives of Leo the Great at the council of Chalcedon (451).
3. Relation of Constantinople to Rome in the Struggle for Supremacy.
Constantinople was virtually a new city founded by the Emperor Constantine as the imperial capital. The church of Byzantium had no claim to apostolic founda- tion, but was subject to the bishop of Heraclea in Thrace.
