What reading level is The Greedy Book, a Gastronomical Anthology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Your oysters are boiled in their own liquor, and do not mix water.
If oysters have to be cooked at all, which is a doctrine I do not support, then the above seems as good a way as any other.
Really good oysters are, anyhow, too precious to be cooked, but should be degustated in puris naturalibus.
A story which 1 venture to think apocry- phal is quoted by W. R. Hare in a curious little book, " On the Search for a Dinner," published in London in 1857. Speaking of dining in Paris, he refers to the
... celebrated restaurant the Rocker du Cancale, and relates how an English " Milord " drove up to the establishment and ordered (and ate) a hearty meal of twenty-nine dozen oysters ; after which Milord died suddenly — and no wonder ! They carried him down with great difficulty to the carriage. The groom, OYSTERS 175 on seeing his master's body arrive, ex- claimed, with great coolness, " It is the third time that Milord gives himself the pleasure of dying of indigestion." " He will not die a fourth time," answered the patron, with sorrow.
