What reading level is Culture in Early Scotland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

! Adamnan mentions the existence of numerous such monastic churches, ;]: which were thus planted in the more populous districts throughout the country. They were placed under the care of monks from lona, and became in their turn the base of aggressive work in the neighbourhood. If we may judge the extent of his labours from the numerous monastic and missionary founda- tions that owed their origin to him during his brief career in Ireland, we may conclude that throughout the thirty- four }'ears ...that elapsed between his arrival in lona and his death, the zeal of Columba and his many coadjutors had dotted the country, the more inaccessible districts excepted, from Caithness to the Clyde, and from the Hebrides to Buchan, with the humble monuments of Christian teaching and worship. Others were founded by Irish monks, contem- poraries of Columba, though not connected with lona, whose love of seclusion, or religious fervour, led them to visit the mainland of Alba audits islands. Moluoghad evangelised Lismore before the advent of Columba ; and St Brendan, the famous voyager and founder of the monastery of Clon- fert, is said to have " laid out a church and village" in the island of Tiree, and at a place called Ailech — perhaps Alyth in Perth.
