What reading level is Ireland Its Scenery Character And History volume 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
126 The Boyne lay in his course to Dublin; Drogheda was in possession of the Irish, and the river must, of necessity, be crossed. Here, then, James stood to dispute the farther progress of his rival ; and here William resolved to hazard a battle, upon which depended the fate of Great Britain, and, indeed, the after destinies of the world. 127 The Boyne is a very beautiful and picturesque river; it winds through the fertile valleys of Meath, and from its richly-wooded banks the hills rise gradua...lly ; there are no lofty mountains in the immediate neighbourhood. The depth, in nearly all parts, is considerable, and the current, consequently, not rapid; its width, near the field of battle, varies little, and is seldom less than fifty or sixty yards. James had the choice of ground, and it was judiciously selected. On the south side of the river, in the county of Meath, his army was posted with considerable skill: on the right was Drogheda; in front were the fords of the Boyne, deep and dangerous, and difficult to pass at all times; the banks were rugged, lined by a morass, defended by some breast-works, with " huts and hedges convenient for infantry; " and behind them was an acclivity stretching along the whole of " the field.
