What reading level is Chiefs of Parties : Past And Present, With Original Anecdotes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Not deeply connected in party politics, Lord Clarendon could render eifectual services to his Sovereign, under different connections. At a great English crisis, he could not be relied on as the man, and he rather wants weight with the aristocracy ; but in the second order of Cabinet Ministers, he would be found most useful ; with his many private virtues, his sustained faculty for labour, and his great stock of useful knowledge, he worthily wears his dis- tinguished title, and must be admitted ...to be an ornament to his order.
154 CHIEFS OF PARTIES.
CHAPTER VII.
VISCOUNT PALMERSTON.
It was the time of the Duke of Portland's Ministry. The country was in a critical state ; parties were broken up ; Parliament was uncertain whether it should give its confidence to Whigs or to Tories. Pitt and Fox were both dead, other statesmen had grown effete or were discredited, and a number of candidates for fame, were enter- ing the public service. Amongst them was a remarkably fine young man, with stalwart form and joyous presence, and a considerable flow of spirits.
