What reading level is The History of England: From the Earliest Period to the Death of ..., volume 6 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
suppose that Richard had, at this moment, the power ^J^ of commanding events, or of perpetrating what he rbiov or pleased; or could as he wished control the king* f^^*^* He had at this period no military force of his own, to overawe any party; for that which he afterwards wanted and obtained, did not come up till the end of June, after he had taken the throne.^ He was now. in the same sea of trouble, ambition, and con* flict, in which all the great men were then engaged ; and was in equal dange...r and in equal uncertainty, even of his own interests and dignity, asany of those who then surrounded him.
His political position, at this juncture, has not been considered ; but if duly contemplated, will be found to have been peculiar and critical. He was not made vegent, like his father in Henry's illness, but he was appointed protector, after the precedent of the same dignity, in the minority of Henry VI.; but this, as already mentioned, conferred no actual power. It invested him with nominal and presiding dignity, but made him onlyone of the lords of the council of re« gency.^ This precedent left him under the anxiety of even this conferred dignity ceasing as soon as Edward was crowned.
