What reading level is Essays in Biography And Criticism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the sixtli of July was won the crowning victory of Wagrani. War had been declared precisely three months before ; and now the great Austrian monarchy lay once more, powerless and gasping, at the feet of the terrible soldier. Prussia and the whole German land had heard the sound of war on the Danube, with a listening and surmise, of awe and apprehension not unmingled with hope. As a victim in the swoon of death, patching sounds of attempted rescue, might show a heaving of the breast and a qui...vering of muscle, the nation gave here and there a sign of life and awakening : but as that victim, at the sight of the murderer's knife, reeking with new gore, and in the glance of his eye lit with new triumph, might sink back into stupor, so it drew one deep sigh and settled back into submission. The conviction sank deep into the mind of Euroj)e that this Napoleon was actually invincible.
Nor can this result excite surprise. If you follow the career of this wonderful man, from Montenotte to "Wagram, if you watch the flight of his eagles from the pyramids to the Niemen, if you estimate the genius displayed in the campaign of Marengo, in the campaign of Austerlitz, in the campaign of Jena, in the campaign of Friedland, in the campaign of Wagram, you pause in awe and astonish- ment at the unexampled spectacle.
