What reading level is Richard Ii book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This cousin was named Henry Bolingbroke. He was theson of Richard's uncle John, the Duke of Lancaster. He and Richardwere now both about eleven years of age; or rather, Richard waseleven, and his cousin Henry was about ten.
Of course, Richard was altogether too young to exercise any realcontrol in respect to the government of the country. Every thing was, consequently, left to the Parliament and the nobles. His unclesendeavored to assume the general direction of affairs, but there wasneverthele...ss a strong party against them. There were no means ofdeciding these disputes except by the votes in Parliament, and thesevotes went one way and the other, as one party or the other, for thetime being, gained the ascendency. Every one watched very closely theconduct of Richard's uncle John. He was the next oldest son of Edwardthe Third, after Edward, the Prince of Wales, Richard's father. Ofcourse, if Richard were to die, he would become king; and if hehimself were to die before Richard did, and then Richard were to diebefore he grew up and had children of his own, then his son, Richard'scousin, Henry Bolingbroke, would be entitled to claim the kingdom.
