What reading level is Counsel Upon the Reading of Books book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Perhaps this is the reason why Thackeray so cordially hated Lord Hervey, whose memoirs supplied him, nevertheless, with abundant material for " The Four Georges ; " with the matchless scene, for example, at the deathbed of his most sacred Majesty, King George the Second, and with the closely drawn characters of Queen Caroline, and 130 MEMOIRS AND BIOGRAPHIES that very great statesman, Sir Robert Wai- pole. Lord Hervey truly admired both the Queen and Walpole. He liked unflinching courage and st...rong common sense. He liked, in fact, those useful qualities which were of service to the state, and saw no rea- son why a Prime Minister should display precisely the virtues which decorate the Archbishop of Canterbury. " Priests to pray, and kings to rule, " said Charlotte Elizabeth, mother of the Regent d' Orleans ; and Lord Hervey was of a somewhat similar opinion. He was not disedified, only amused, when the Queen, "to save time, " obliged her chaplain to read the morning prayers in one room, while she dressed comfortably in an- other ; but he was wholesomely angry, and not amused at all, when the Commons were more than ordinarily shameless in voting away the people's money.
