What reading level is English Local Government volume 5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Whether or not a particular bit of road remained in the ruinous and impassable condition implied by parish management depended, not on the needs of the users, or the national importance of this particular Unk, but on the degree of enlightened self-interest or public spirit of the squires, farmers, and traders in its immediate neighbourhood. If, during the eighteenth century, any one had taken the trouble to make a turnpike map of England, this would have shown, not a system of radiating arterie...s of com- munication, but scattered cases of turnpike administration, unconnected with each other ; appearing at first as mere dots on the map, then gradually increasing in number and size so as to form continuous lines ; and only by the end of the century becoming, as John Holt somewhat optimistically declared in 1794, " so multiplied and extended as to form almost an universal plan of communication through the kingdom. " It took, in fact, practically a whole century of disconnected efiort before even such national arteries of communication as the Great North Road from London to Edinburgh, the Irish road from London to Holyhead, or the Great Western Road from London to Exeter came, for the whole of their lengths, under the administration of Turnpike Trusts.
