What reading level is Life of Bishop Percival book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He allowed ample time for games, but wished to see them organised with the same thoroughness as work. He left httle scope for the boy of unusual tastes or interests. He represented in this respect the extreme development of one tendency in education. At all schools the hours and the minutes were getting organised by authority. In all schools the pendulum has now swung back considerably. The extreme point was probably reached at Rugby under Percival, But if he had some of the weaknesses of the S...toic and the Puritan, he had all their strength. That he should make an unnecessary to-do about bare knees or over-fill the time-table are small matters to set against his intense moral earnestness and passion for righteousness. That fiery zeal IV RUGBY 117 was the dominating fact of Rugby life while he presided over it. And the fact that it expressed itself in fearless action outside the sphere of school life only added to its influence. Boys, who tend to conservatism, would object to the particular line which he took ; but they knew in their souls what was the motive that prompted him, and his courage increased rather than diminished his influence on their characters.
