What reading level is Bonapartism Six Lectures Delivered in the University of London book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Sentiment failed to cluster round the fabric of the new dynasty. Louis XVIII was old, corpulent, and gouty, incapable of bestriding a horse, and destitute of any power of appeal to the soul of his people. His brother and heir, the Count of Artois, was a narrow-minded bigot, whose sinister influence gave matter for bitter suspicions. The dynasty had been put upon the French throne by foreign armies. Its success was connected with contracted frontiers and national humiliation, and its conduct gav...e good ground for thinking that it viewed the charter with dislike and would at some near date restore the Emigres to their land and the Church to its old position of endowed and intolerant pre- dominance. With astonishing speed discontent spread through the country. In every village half-pay officers might be found, grumbling at the reduction of a great army to a peace establishment and at the restoration of the exiles to their former military rank. Was it true that these inglorious men who cheapened the Legion of Honour, who closed the shops on Sunday, were intending to bring back the old regime, to steal the land from the peasant, and to restore the noble and the priest ?
