What reading level is History of India volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In 1780 the French in the South were joined by the implacable Haidar Ali, as will be more fully shown in the next chapter ; and, as if to crown the edifice of evil, Barwell was determined to leave the country. To mini- mise this difficulty, the Governor-General attempted to engage Francis to waive differences in face of the enemy. With the concurrence of Coote now member of his Council Hastings resolved to renew his demand upon the Benares Raja, on whom, in the course of 1788, he made a call fo...r a contingent of 2, 000 horse. The Raja refused, on the plea of poverty ; and Hastings reduced the demand to one for half the number. Nothing but attempts to corrupt him following, Hastings set out for Calcutta in July, 1781, in the hope of vindicating the power of the Company and reducing that of the Raja. HS was opposed, surrounded, and forced to take shelter at Chu- nar, but the brave Popham sprang to his aid, and the Raja was driven into Bundelkhand, his dominions being made over to a nephew on terms advantageous to the Company.
