What reading level is Modern Europe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
No ; for gazing toward the north, over the lofty barrier of the Alps, one sees into Switzerland. Surely those far away shining peaks are our old friends, Mont Blanc and the Matterhorn. Mont Blanc appears no less a king when seen from the Italian side.
Milan Cathedral has cost one hundred million dollars, and is not yet complete. If it is finished according to the present plan, it will cost many millions more.
The large amount necessary to begin the cathedral was raised by Pope Boniface IX. He p...romised all the Lombards who should make a pilgrimage to Milan, instead of to Rome, the same indulgences they could obtain at the latter city, on one condition. Traveling to Milan was a much shorter journey than traveling to Rome. The Lombards would save in this way quite a sum. One-third of the sum saved he asked them to give toward building the cathedral. In this way a goodly amount was raised.
A recent traveler says that, considered architectu- rally, Milan Cathedral is a failure. This is because it cannot stand alone, so to speak, but must be held up by iron clamps and rods.
