What reading level is Studies in Mediæval History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
161 in 876, was succeeded by his surviving son, Charles the Fat. He, proving himself utterly incapable of defend- ing the country against the incursions of the Northmen, and therefore unfit to perform the essential duties of King of the Franks in those days of violence, was deposed in 888 by his nobles. He was the last legiti- niate male descendant of Charlemagne; and such was the superstitious reverence at that time for the race of which the great Emperor was the founder, notwith- standing the... extraordinary and well-proved incapacity of each one of its members save the chief, that the nobles decided to choose as their king, on the death of Charles, an illegitimate descendant of the Emperor, — Arnulf, — simply because the blood of Charlemagne ran in his veins. Arnulf proved not an unworthy scion of his illustrious ancestor.
The principal tribes in Germany at the time of the death of Arnulf were six in number, inhabiting the fol- lowing districts: 1st, Saxony, the largest territory, and the most renowned for its warriors, between the lyower Ehine and the Oder, the North Sea and the Hartz Moun- tains, including modern Hanover, Westphalia, Bruns- wick, and Northern Prussia.
