What reading level is The Coburgs the Story of the Rise of a Great Royal House book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Instead, with a handful of his followers he cut his way to a hill named the Cerro de las Campanas, overlooking the city. Within a few minutes the little band was surrounded by over- whelming forces. The emperor asked general Mejia if it were possible to fight a way through the enemies' line. " Impossible, " replied the brave Indian soldier, " but I am ready to try if your majesty commands. " " Enough blood has been shed, " re- plied Maximilian, and he gave the signal to surrender. He handed his... sword to the republican general Escobedo and was marched off a prisoner with his generals Miramon and Mejia, to a convent in the city.
The empire had fallen. His work was done, and Maximilian not improbably was glad to be relieved at last of his burden. The worst, he supposed, was over. He had left an act of abdication already signed in the hands of his ministers at the capital, and he now asked his captors to place him aboard an Austrian corvette which lay in the roads of Vera Cruz. He was once more the archduke Maximilian and wanted only to leave the country of his blasted ambition.
