To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nice?’ chided the other. ‘Is that all you can say? The Royal Exchange is one of the great sights of London and you simply dub it ‘nice’. Look properly, Davy. And listen. That excited buzz you hear is the sealing of a thousand contracts. This is the very heart of the city, the place where goods are bought and sold, fortunes made or lost and commercial dynasties forged. To merchants like me, the Royal Exchange is home.’ ‘Yes, Father.’‘That’s why I brought you here. To feast your eyes on its magnif...icence.’‘Thank you,’ said the boy. ‘It’s very big.’‘Nice? Big? You’re too miserly with your adjectives, lad. The Exchange is a true phenomenon. It may resemble the bourses at Antwerp and Venice but, in my view, it surpasses both. I was little above your own age when the first brick was laid by Sir Thomas Gresham some thirty odd years ago. Do you see that huge grasshopper atop the bell tower?’ he went on, pointing upwards. ‘An emblem from the Gresham crest. The memory of Sir Thomas is kept fresh in our minds.’ ‘Yes, Father.’Davy Stratton’s dutiful answer concealed his doubts.
