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

He began his reign with a ^,^,^^3 j.
persecution of the Puritans. The Covenanters iff of James in Scotland, and the Nonconformists in England, were pursued with unrelenting cruelty. The blood-thirsty Jeffreys was a judge after the King's own heart. Divines like Eichard Baxter, respected by aU good men, were loaded with insult and cast into prison. The purpose of James was to divide power and offices between the Church of England and the Church of Eome, of which he was a member. Finding that he
...could not buUd up the Eoman Catholic cause by the aid of Episcopalians, he turned to the Dissenters, and, by an unconstitutional exercise of power, suspended the execution of penal laws against them. He professed to be a believer in liberty of con- science. This new policy culminated in the Declaration of Indulgence. This naturally gave pleasure to such Non- conformists as looked only at the immediate gain, with- out penetrating the King's design, or considering that an act which brought to them relief enslaved the nation, converting, as it did, the monarch into a czar.
