What reading level is Charles Lister; Letters And Recollections, With a Memoir By His Father, Lord Ribblesdale book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

It is an extra- ordinary work, and the lucidity with which he deals with the various heresies in the Eastern Church, and the migration of the Turkish tribes is quite amazing. The riddle to me of the history of the East is the ethnical kinship, quite indisputable, of the Sultans of Stamboul and the Mogul of India. In things like appreciation of the arts they are as far apart as — say — the Southend-on-Sea Town Council of to-day and the Signory of Florence of the Middle Ages. However, they were b...oth nomads and dwellers in tents, as can be seen from the Mogul buildings. Here they were such copy-cats, and simply added the minaret to the Byzantine church.
It is extraordinary to see their women-folk out on a day's pleasure, quite happy just sitting in the grounds in the shade resting from the long day's march over the hot desert in their subconscious selves, I suppose nomads still in spirit — a curious contrast to the English who on the occasion I'm thinking of were out also for a day's pleasure, and getting them- selves hot and thirsty playing cricket in the glaring sun.
