What reading level is Ancient Law book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The co-owners of an Indian village, thoughtheir property is blended, have their rights distinct, and thisseparation of rights is complete and continues indefinitely. Theseverance of rights is also theoretically complete in a Russianvillage, but there it is only temporary. After the expiration of agiven, but not in all cases of the same, period separate ownershipsare extinguished, the land of the village is thrown into a mass, andthen it is re-distributed among the families composing the communi...ty, according to their number. This repartition having been effected, therights of families and of individuals are again allowed to branch outinto various lines, which they continue to follow till another periodof division comes round. An even more curious variation from this typeof ownership occurs in some of those countries which long formed adebateable land between the Turkish empire and the possessions of theHouse of Austria. In Servia, in Croatia, and the Austrian Sclavonia, the villages are also brotherhoods of persons who are at onceco-owners and kinsmen; but there the internal arrangements of thecommunity differ from those adverted to in the last two examples.
