What reading level is French & English: a Comparison book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

I do not perceive that parties have become more tolerant during the last ten years. The one good sign is, that with all their hatred they have avoided civil war.
Next to the rancour of internal politics, the greatest obstacle to justice is that kind of vulgar patriotism which cannot love its own country without hating its neigh- bours. This sentiment of hatred is strictly proportionate to the neighbour's power. The English have no animosity against Swiss republicanism, though it is still more d
...emocratic than French. The French had a romantic sympathy with Italy in her weakness, but they detest her in her strength.
Most English and French people are capable of justice towards foreigners who belong to insignificant States, such as the Danes, the Dutch, the Belgians, the Swiss, and the Greeks. A few are capable of justice towards citizens of great and powerful States.
Mr. Grant Allen has given an excellent example of this rare kind of justice in saying simply what is true about the French colony of Algeria, and in expressing the desire, in the interests of civilisation, that the beneficent French power might ultimately be permitted to extend itself over Morocco.
