What reading level is Peeps At Heraldry book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Numerous legends explain the introduction of the lily into armorial bearings, but we can only add here that although the fleur-de-lys is generally used in heraldry, the natural 37 Peeps at Heraldry- flower is occasionally represented — as in the well-known arms of Eton College ; three natural lilies, silver, are charged upon a sable field, one conventional fleur-de-lys being also represented. Amongst other flower charges, three very pretty coats of arms are borne respectively by the families of... Jorney, Hall, and Chorley. The first have three gilliflowers, the second, three columbines, and the last, three bluebottles (cornflowers).
Three pansies were given by Louis XV. To his physician. Dr. Quesnay, as a charge in a coat of arms, which he drew with his own royal hand ; and to come to modern times, Mexico has adopted the cactus as the arms of the Republic, in allusion to the legend connected with the founding of the city in 1325, when it is said that the sight of a royal eagle perched upon a huge cactus on a rocky crevice, with a serpent in its talons, guided the Mexicans to the choice of a site for the foundations of their city.
