What reading level is Days of the Dandies volume 6 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The two great novelists of the day, who have since become great statesmen, Disraeli and Bulwer Lytton, displayed at that brilliant supper-table the one his sable, the other his auburn curls ; there Horace Twiss made proof of an appetite and Edward Montague of a thirst which astonished all beholders ; whilst the bitter jests of Sir Joseph Copley, Colonel Armstrong, and John Wilson Croker, and the brilliant wit of Alvanley were the delight of all present, and their bons mots were the next day ret...ailed all over Eng- land.
In the play-room might be heard the clear, ring- ing voice of that agreeable reprobate, Tom Dun- 98 CAPTAIN GRONOW combe, as he cheerfully called " Seven, " and the powerful hand of the vigorous Sefton in throwing for a ten. There might be noted the scientific dribbling of a four by " King " Allen, the tremen- dous backing of nines and fives by Ball Hughes and Auriol, the enormous stakes played for by Lords Lichfield and Chesterfield, George Payne, Sir St. Vincent Cotton, D'Orsay, and George Anson, and, above all, the gentlemanly bearing and calm and unmoved demeanour under losses or gains of all the men of that generation.
