What reading level is English Puritanism And Its Leaders: Cromwell, Milton, Baxter, Bunyan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
wild and jovial life in liis youth, and squandered a great part of his estate in gaming ; but about or short- ly before the time of his son's birth a great change passed upon him. He became severely and strictly religious, and spent much of his time in pious medita- tion and study. This change had arisen from reflec- tion, and the " bare reading of the Scriptures in private, without either preaching or godly company, or any other book than the Bible." Godly company and reli- gious instruction, ...in fact, were not to be had in the district. The picture which Baxter draws of the clergy and their assistants is of the most melancholy descrip- tion. As we read it, and think that the men whom he describes were not exceptions, but ordinary spe- cimens of the parochial clergy of King James, the ar- dour of local Puritanism becomes strongly intelligible.
The people, according to his description, were like their pastors — rude, ignorant, and irreligious. With such a clergy, it is remarkable that any moral or spirit- ual life subsisted among them at all.
