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

The Germans do really say that Englishmen are onlySea-Germans, as our haddocks were only sea-horses. They do really saythat the nightingales of Tuscany or the pearls of Hellas must somehow beGerman birds or German jewels. They do maintain that the ItalianRenaissance was really the German Renaissance, pure Germans havingItalian names when they were painters, as cockneys sometimes have whenthey are hair-dressers. They suggest that Jesus and the great Jews wereTeutonic. One Teutonist I read actual...ly explained the fresh energy ofthe French Revolution and the stale privileges of its German enemies bysaying that the Germanic soul awoke in France and attacked the Latininfluence in Germany. On the advantages of this method I need not dwell:if you are annoyed at Jack Johnson knocking out an Englishprize-fighter, you have only to say that it was the whiteness of theblack man that won and the blackness of the white man that was beaten. But about the Italian Renaissance they are less general and will go intodetail.
