What reading level is Old Irish Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Grattan, who practised oratory and pistol- shooting with equal zest in the woods of Tinnehinch, his Wicklow home, lost no time in be- taking himself to the sacrosanct spot appointed for the interview, and it was agreed that the meeting between him and the Chancellor of the Exchequer should take place with the least possible delay, in other words, as soon as it was light enough for the combatants to see each other. The rest of the night was occupied by a very desultory and protracted debate. Sev...eral members, we are told, spoke more than once, a matter of the less moment, as no one appears to have listened to them, the attention of all being engrossed by the impending duel.
At daybreak the gentlemen stepped out from the heated atmosphere of the chamber, lit by the flaring candles of its chandelier, into the chilly dawn of the winter's morning. Ball's Bridge, a mile and more away, was the place fixed upon, and out of the 144 OLD IRISH LIFE.
