What reading level is The Heritage of Dress; Being Notes On the History And Evolution of Clothes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At the present day we meet with all sorts of styles, though one may be the fashion for the moment among the younger generation or those who wish to be considered smart. One cannot alter the disposition of one's hair as easily as one can change one's clothes, and this, perhaps, taken in conjunction with the objection to change on the part of a man and his relatives, gives the variety that has been men- tioned. For instance, if it were customary when a man was young for his fellows to wear beards... or only a moustache, then he continues to wear a beard or only a moustache.
Perhaps no other fashions come round again more regularly than those which govern the amount of hair on a man's face, and it may be interesting to indicate very briefly some of the changes which have taken place during the last two thousand years or so in this country.
The inhabitants of England at the time of the Roman invasion either did not shave at all or wore only a moustache. The Romans often cut their beards (see Plate VII, Figure f.), and the Saxons parted their beards into double locks or neatly trimmed them.
