What reading level is Douglas Hyde [an Craoibhin Aoibhinn] book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Hyde was a contri- butor to the review, both in Irish and Enghsh. One of his early Irish poems published therein is a lament for the dis- appearance of the Irish people from their land, called " Smaointe Bhroin " (sad thoughts). This appeared in August, 1886.
In the same year an article on the unpub- lished songs of Ireland appeared. Hyde's first book was a collection of Irish stories called " Leabhar Sgeuluigheachta," which came out in 1889. From that year to the present he has written books o
...f poetry and history. Scarcely a year has passed without seeing one or more of his works published.
It would be out of place in this book to give lengthy extracts from his writings in Irish, but it is impossible to appreciate Hyde's work without some quotations from his Irish as well as his English works. As his earliest writings were in Irish and his whole life has been devoted to the Irish language, it is right to speak of his Gaelic work first and of his English work later.
Hyde's early publications in Gaelic consist of a few original poems, such as that pub- lished in the Dublin University Review, and of many folk tales and poems which he collected from the peasantry in the West of Ireland.
