What reading level is The Elements of English Constitutional History From the Earliest Times to the P book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was necessary, therefore, to keep up the stand- ing army formed by James II. But a standing army cannot be kept in order without special laws to enforce discipline, and special courts to administer these laws. The English Constitution knew nothing of such laws or such courts. When James 11. Hanged certain soldiers for deserting their colours, he was acting contrary to law. So, when a mutiny broke out in 1689 among a Scotch regiment quartered at Ipswich, the first Mutiny Act was passed to pre...vent such offences in future. It was to be in force for one year only. It had to be re-enacted, but it was still for a year only ; at first because men hoped that there would be no need for a standing army, but afterwards because Parliament was resolved to keep the standing army under its control. In 1881 the Mutiny Act was replaced by the Army Discipline and Regulation Act ; but this also has to be renewed every year. If it were not renewed, there would be no means of enforcing discipline in the army.
