What reading level is Henry Grattan the Stanhope Essay 1902 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

See Fox's letter in Grattan's Life, iii. No. 'To lay treaties before an assembly to which we are not responsible would be only an idle compliment at best, but might be in the end productive of some of the worst consequences which are to be found under the peculiar relations in which the two kingdoms now stand one to another. ' HENRY GRATTAN 67 did not find the troops she raised and paid for of very much use for her own purposes, either offensive (if she had needed them) or defensive. Indeed, ha...d it not been for the unfortunate con- troversy about the Mutiny Bill, Irishmen might have been ready to forego their army, and adopt the same policy towards the land as towards the sea forces of the Empire. As it was, Ireland continued, of course, to raise and to pay for her troops, though she had no voice in the policy for which they fought, and was even to see them fighting against their own fellow countrymen.
Thus of the five prerogatives which, materially speaking, give a country an international position, j succession, foreign relations, navy, army, and commerce, Grattan secured his countrymen only the last two, and those, as it turned out, unprofit- ably.
