What reading level is The English Middle Span Classsearchtermclassspan book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

We have the well-known story of the Crown borrowino- from certain Italians, and discover- ing afterwards that the money had really been pro- vided by Englishmen, who were ready enough to take the profits, but w^ould rather share them with foreigners than come forward openly. This attitude was, of course, bound to break down. Some few men would have the intelligence to abandon it frankly; and these may have schemed to supplant the Italians in the confidence of the Exchequer. For the rest, in all... the prosperity of the fourteenth century it would gradually become impossible to pretend to lack of means. But traces of the attitude can be found even when the burgess had begun to take a share in Government. In the early part of the century the merchants had made grants to the Crown independently of Parliament, such as the grant of 4^. A sack on wool in 1343, and the tunnage and poundage of 2s. A tun on wine and 6d. A pound on goods in 1347. In 1372 we have the curious incident of the Black Prince retaining the city and borough members of the Parliament of that year, after the knights of the shire had departed, and in- ducing them to renew the tunnage and poundage of 1 37 1.
