What reading level is Our Public Schools Their Influence On English History Charter House Eton Har book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Were Dr. Arnold to come to life, he would scarcely know his own house. The long dark passages upon which the studies open are there, but the large fires at the ends of them have vanished, for the simple reason that the studies are now warmed with hot-air pipes. No selfish proeposter (or sixth-form boy as they now say) occupying the study at the fire end can now rig up an iron rod and green baize curtain across the passage, and, sitting with his door open, keep all the fire to him- self. The pic...tures in East's study have been described by Rugby's historian "three or four prints of dogs' heads, Grimaldi winning the Aylesbury steeple-chase, Amy Rob- sart, the reigning Waverly beauty of the day, and Tom Crib in a posture of defence. " You might enter every study of the school without finding a portrait of Tom Crib or any other expert in the "gentle craft. " Both the style and the subjects of our boys' pictures have changed for the better in the last sixty years. But there is one small detail which illustrates the roughness of the school in times gone by.
