What reading level is Historical Characters: Mackintosh, Talleyrand, Canning, Cobbett, Peel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was nothing of severity in his plan of life — he dined out with those who invited him, and his own little room was at times modestly lit up for gatherings together of old friends, who enjoyed new jokes, and amongst whom and for whom were composed squibs, pamphlets, news- paper articles, in steady glorification of school and college opinions, which the Oxonian, on quitting the University, had no doubt the intention to sustain in the great battles of party warfare.
But events were then begi...nning to make men's con- victions tremble under them ; and, with the increasiug differences amongst veteran statesmen, it was difficult to count on youthful recruits.
At all events, it is about this time that Mr. Canning's political career begins. It must be viewed in relation to the particular state of society and government which then existed.
From the days of Queen Anne there had been a contest going on between the two aristocratic factions, " Whig " and " Tory." The principles professed by either were freqitently changed.
