What reading level is Essays in History And Politics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

But what are the data ? In what respect is Burke's speculation "rich" as distinguished from his rhetoric? There is really no "speculative " element in Burke's pol- itics whatever : his great characteristic is the vehement and various eloquence with which he enounces his instinc- tive attitude towards the social tendencies of his time ; now resisting what he felt to be blind pedantry and inhumane conservatism ; anon finding a wealth of ingenious and imaginative justification for a pedantry and a... conservat- ism in which he shared as in resisting the claims of the Dissenters ; and yet again exhausting the power of words to hurl hatred at those who outraged his habits of emotional attachment to historic institutions. He might be right or he might be wrong, but at least he was not speculative in his philosophy : he was a man of deep and strong sentiments and glowing sympathies, with an in- comparable gift of vivid dialectic ; a Gladstone raised to a higher power, because more intense, original, and organic in his convictions, endowed with a genius rather than a talent for expression, and carrying passion in his blood and senses, as well as in his brain.
