What reading level is Europe And the Faith book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As Alaric is a general in partial rebellion against the Imperial authority, these auxiliaries join him.
The total number of Alaric's men was at this moment very small; they were perhaps 30, 000. There was no trace of nationality about them. They were simply a body of discontented soldiers; they had not come from across th« frontier; they were not invaders; they were part of the long estab- lished and regular garrisons of the Empire; and, for that matter, many garrisons and troops of equally bar...baric origin, sided with the regular authorities in the quarrel. Alaric marches on Rome with this disaffected Roman Army, claiming that he has been defrauded of his due in salary, and leaning upon the popularity of the dead Stilicho, whose murder he says he will avenge.
80 EUROPE AND THE FAITH His thirty thousand claim the barbarian slaves within the city, and certain sums of money which had been the pretext and motive of his rebellion.
As a result of this action the Emperor promises Alaric his regular salary as a general, and a district which he may not only command, but plant with his few followers.
