What reading level is Essays And Addresses By the Right Hon Arthur J Balfour book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

For some time matters went smoothly enough ; but the jealousies which arose between the Society and its conductor, between the rival com- posers, and between the rival singers, soon produced a degree of discord fatal to that unity of action without which continuous success was impossible. Handel broke with the Society, and set up, first in 1 20 HANDEL 1729, in partnership with Heidegger; afterwards (in 1734) on his own account. The results of such a proceeding are what might easily have been an...tici- pated. Few have been the places, and brief the periods, in which the opera has been able to support itself on any considerable scale in entire independence either of private munificence or State subvention. London, as readers of Colley Gibber's Apology are aware, could Avith difficulty in the early part of the last century support two playhouses. A scheme, therefore, which required that it should support two opera-houses was foredoomed from the first to dis- astrous failure. It did not require the unprecedented success of the " Beggars' Opera " to destroy its exotic rival ; that rival was predestined to destruction, had Gay never written, nor Pepusch composed.
