To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The conquest of Septimania was rathertedious than difficult. The Franks, after having victoriously scouredthe open country of the district, kept invested during three years itscapital, Narbonne, where the Arabs of Spain, much weakened by theirdissensions, vainly tried to throw in re-enforcements. Besides theMussulman Arabs the population of the town numbered many Christian Goths, who were tired of suffering for the defence of their oppressors, and whoentered into secret negotiations with the ch...iefs of Pepin's army, the endof which was, that they opened the gates of the town. In 759, then, after forty years of Arab rule, Narbonne passed definitively under thatof the Franks, who guaranteed to the inhabitants free enjoyment of theirGothic or Roman law and of their local institutions. It even appearsthat, in the province of Spain bordering on Septimania, an Arab chief, called Soliman, who was in command at Gerona and Barcelona, between theEbro and the Pyrenees, submitted to Pepin, himself and the country underhim.
