What reading level is The Age of Anne book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The war would then have lasted four years instead of eleven, and much would have been saved. It was the heartfelt mistrust of Lewis that made Marlborough, Eugene, and Heinsius, the Whig ministers in England, and the Dutch statesmen, refuse to treat. But they could then have obtained the same terms that they secured afterwards, or better. From that time forward the allies were in the wrong, and at each negotiation, at the Hague and at Gertruy- denburg, they plunged more deeply into it. After the... disaster at Villa Viciosa, all claim on Spain should have been surrendered. The allies asked too much, and they were forced to take too little. For, that Bolingbroke and Oxford granted terms too easily, and mismanaged the negotiations, there is no manner of doubt When peace was proclaimed in London there was a grand Te Deum in St. Paul's Cathedral, Handel's music probably bemg played. But the Te Deum «"'"• raised by Lewis and his courtiers should have been louder, for in the Peace of Utrecht Lewis gained the most.
