What reading level is A Short History of Medival Europe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His severity in punishing all offences, his heavy taxes, and his devasta- tion of a large territory to make a game preserve caused him to be hated by his people, who did not understand the great services he was rendering England.
The reign of William Rufus (1087-1100), the second son of William the Conqueror, was violent and oppressive in the extreme. He laid heavy financial burdens on the people, and they were not sorry when he met his death while hunting in the New Forest. The eldest son of W...illiam, count Robert, had received the duchy of Normandy, but had pawned it in order to go on the first crusade. The third son, Henry, was made king of England (1100-35). Fearing that his title to the crown was not good, and that Robert would probably oppose him, he tried to propitiate the people in every possible way. He published a charter of liberties which contained concessions to the Church, France, iioS-i4g^; England, loyo-i/jS^ 239 the vassals, and the nation at large, and assured all classes that they would no longer be subjected to the wrongs and exactions which they had suffered from his brother.
