What reading level is Kensington book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The rest was comparatively uncared-for and waste. Queen Anne died at Kensington from apoplexy, brought on by over-eating, and was succeeded by the first George, who spent so much of his time in visiting his Hanoverian dominions that he had not much left for performing the merely neces- sary Court duties at St. James's, and none to spare for any lengthy visits to Kensington. However, he admired the place, and caused alterations to be made. It was in his reign that the ugly annexe on the east sid...e, bearing unmistakably a Georgian origin, was added, under the super- intendence of William Kent, who had supplanted Wren. George's daughter-in-law, " Caroline the Illustrious," loved Kensington, and has left her impress on it more than any other occupant.
57 KENSINGTON THE FASCINATION When her husband came to the throne^ she spent much of her time^ during his long absences abroad, at the Palace. She employed Kent to do away with William's formal flower-beds, and she added much ground to the Gardens, taking for the purpose 100 acres from Hyde Park, and dividing the two parks by the Serpentine River, formed from the pools in the bed of the West- bourne.
