What reading level is The History of Germany, From the Earliest Period to 1842 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The lower nobility, almost entirely expatriated, were replaced by a species of Hidalgo or noble by patent ; titles being by t lie court lavished on or sold to its civic fol- lowers. The example given by Austria was followed by the other German courts, and the families of ancient nobility that still remained were compelled to admit very unworthy sub- jects, such as the families of favoured mistresses, etc., into their ranks. The ancient families, disgusted at this innova- tion, took refuge in pr...ide of ancestry, to which those least dis- tinguished by personal qualities the more obstinately clung.
Duelling was also a noble prerogative.
The princes had reduced the clerjry to submission by the Reformation, the nobility by modern military tactiea, the cities by the decay of commerce, and the peasantry in the peasant war, The wretched results of the thirty years' war utterly annihilated the ancient power of the provincial Estates* which were either entirely dissolved or rendered a blind tool of the government.
