What reading level is History of the Jews From the Earliest Times to the Present Day volume 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Her name was Paloma (Dove), and to escape shame, CH. XII. SUFFERINGS OF THE EXILES AT GENOA. 389 the mother threw her and her other daughters and then herself into the waves. The wretched father composed a heartbreaking song of lamentation for his lost dear ones.
Those who reached the port of Genoa had to contend with new miseries. In this thriving town there was a law that Jews should not remain there for longer than three days. As the ships which were to convey the Jews thence required repair...ing, the jurisdiction of Genoa conceded them per- mission to remain not in the town, but upon the Mole, until the vessels were ready for sea. Then like ghosts, pale, shrunken, hollow-eyed, gaunt, they went on shore, and if they had not bestirred them- selves instinctively to get out of their floating prison, they might have been taken for so many corpses. The starving children went into the churches, and allowed themselves to be baptised for a morsel of bread ; and Christians were merciless enough not merely to accept such offers, but with the cross in one hand, and bread in the other, to go among the Jews, and tempt them to become converted.
