To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The care of his infancy and youth was left, therefore, entirely to his mother, who was a woman of education, excellent qualities and rare attainments. He entered college in Paris at the early age of 12 ; was fond of books, and obtained a good classical as well as military education. His love of books continued through life, and was a great source of enjoyment in his leisure hours. In 1770, at the age of 14, his mother died ; and as he was an only child, he was left sole heir to a large estate ;... and, although surrounded by parasites and flatterers, never indulged in dissipation, but applied his great income to some useful purpose, rather than spending it in riotous living, as young men often do. In April, 1774, he was married, at the early age of 17, to the Countess Anastasie de Noailles, daughter of the Duke d'Ayen, and brought to his own a heart full of virtue, courage and conjugal affection, as well as large estates ; although she, herself, was the greatest treasure of all. Her estates, together with his own, gave him a revenue of more than $37, 000 a year.
