What reading level is History of the English Landed Interest; Its Customs, Laws & Agriculture book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
127 the animosity and differences of tastes between the two nation- alities, which are the subjects of this particular chapter.
Perhaps their hatred was inspired by the same strange motive which makes a civil the bloodiest of all wars — it was a case of Greek meeting Grreek. Even a common religion, much less a common ancestry, failed at first to soffcen their animosities.
The patriotic English primate aroused the rage of his con- querors by refusing to crown their leader, and the Church only es...caped spoliation at the expense of its native clergy.^ The substitution of the Conqueror's alien nominees for the Anglo-Saxon priests restored for a time the waning jurisdic- tion of ecclesiastical Borne ; perhaps, too, some of the systems of heathen Rome. Though William refused the Pope his homage, he re-saddled the soil with its old charge for Peter's pence.
As far as the new constitution would allow, Saxon as well as Norman kept up their original habits. Under feudal law the land was nominally the king's, but practically in the possession of his tenants-in-chief, who paid him for it an acknowledgment in homage and military services.
