What reading level is The Cathedral Church of Canterbury: a Description of Its Fabric And a Brief ... book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At length he retired to the Cistercian Abbey at Pontigny, which had formerly sheltered Becket and Langton, in despair at the condition of England and of her Church. It was during his time that the great movements of the Dominican and Franciscan friars reached England and though the archbishop never actually joined their ranks, he was doubtless much influenced by their teaching and example, and was himself an itinerant preacher after leaving Oxford. He was canonized six years after his death. He... was succeeded by Boniface of Savoy (1241-1270), one of the king's uncles, whose violence and warlike bearing made him a strange con- trast to his predecessor. His term of office was one long history of papal exactions from the English clergy, and of the tyranny of foreigners, creatures of Henry III., over the rights of the nation. The revenues of the See of Canterbury and the enormous sums wrung from the clergy were squandered on foreign wars, and the archbishop himself resided abroad. Boniface took a leading part in the spoliation of the English Church; Digitized by Google The History of the See.
