What reading level is The Ghosts of Bigotry Six Lectures book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The monotony of assaults on individuals was varied by raids on a more extensive scale. Whole villages were suddenly sur- rounded and sacked. The Catholics fled to the woods, and the Protestant preachers who usually led such "drives" plundered at their own sweet will. Death itself was a relief when compared with imprison- ment. The jails were filthy holes, full of vermin and disease. Out of fifty-eight persons at one time imprisoned by the 88 Provocation Enough for Powder Plot.
Archbishop of Yor...k for refusing the test oath, forty died in prison.
I recall those things not to create bad feeling. Thank God those times are past and gone. I present you with this faint picture of the reality so that you may answer for yourselves the question: Sup- pose all the Catholics did conspire to blow up the King, did they not have provoca- tion? Would it be any wonder if a small knot of men, suffering from such laws as those, would be driven by their despair to the wild justice of revenge? It is neces- sary to invoke the supposition that it was hatred of the Protestant faith and of the liberty of the Gospel which nerved the conspirators to that daring which is the last refuge of the wretched.
