What reading level is The Close of the Middle Ages 1273 1494 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Charles vii. Was fully conscious of the danger involved to the French monarchy in the erection of a practically inde- pendent state on the eastern and north-eastern frontiers of France. His suzerainty over the French fiefs of Philip was suspended during the latter's lifetime by the treaty of Arras, and even when it should be revived by his own death or that of the duke, it would be of little use against a vassal who was strong enough to defy his overlord. The most pressing danger was the occupa...tion by Philip of the strongest places in Picardy, which brought him into dangerous proximity to Paris. Twice Charles endeavoured to exercise the power of redeeming the towns on the Somme which had been reserved in the treaty of Arras, but both times he had to put up with a rebuff. An open struggle between France and the Burgundian power was, sooner or later, inevitable, but Charles was too weary of warfare to allow it to break out during his reign. Even when the duke gave such an ostentatious w^elcome to the rebellious dauphin, the king refused to depart from his policy of peace.
