What reading level is Eminent Persons Biographies Reprinted From the Times volume 5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The great and un- necessary length of the book will f prevent its ever being generally read ; but, though Freeman may have been conscious of this artistic and practical mistake, he never showed the least intention of amending it. Only last summer he brought out the first two volumes of his long-promised History of Sicily, an interesting country, to tracing the career of which, through 224 EMINENT PERSONS Sikelian, Greek, Carthaginian, Eoman, Arab, Norman, and later times, a master might lawfull...y devote a thousand pages. But in Freeman's hands the thousand pages, or thereabouts, were exhausted before we had even come in sight of the Roman conquest. Again, with him the relative magnitudes of persons, of places, and of events undergo the most curious transformations. The concluding chapters of the Norman Conquest contain an eloquent attempt to demonstrate, not only that William the Conqueror was a very great man which everybody admits but that he was quite as great a man as Csesar, or Napoleon, or any other of the world-heroes of the past.
