What reading level is Heart of Europe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Already this living charm had begun to exert itself over a wider and wider field, and when the war came there were more than 4, 000 English and Americans who had taken up their residence there, drawn by its subtle charm and by what this stood for once, and stands for now. When the King is back in Brussels again, and real life begins once more, who knows but that the spirit of Bruges may find itself dominant over the spirit (has it a spirit?) of Charleroi, not only in Flan- 186 HEART OF EUROPE d...ers and Belgium and Europe, but throughout the world, for '*the old order change th, giving place to new, " and the "new" is also, and un- mistakably, the old, preserved as here in Bruges for better days, when through suffering and ruin man comes into his own again, and sees once more what is, what is not, worth while.
In Brabant were once other centres of old memories: Maastricht, Liege, Huy, and Namur; Dinant, Louvain, and Malines. None of them remains, for across Brabant runs the black scar that has transformed the cities of the Sambre and the Meuse into smoking anvils, where iron is hammered out into efficiency and coal is torn from the earth and burned in consuming fires to the same end; for across Brabant runs the red scar that efficiency has blazed like a trail of enduring flame, never to be forgotten or forgiven so long as man remains on earth; a portent and a horror to all generations in scecula sceculoruvi.
