What reading level is The History of Greece From Its Commencement to the Close of the Independence of book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Made a determined attempt to hold Asia Minor. But at the beginning of his reign he was defeated by the Bithynians and at the close of it by the Pergamenians. He evidently on the first occasion wanted to march northwards through the valley of the Rhyndacus and on the second through that of the Caicus, and failed each time. There is no doubt, how- ever, that he defeated the Gauls. But this was not of much use to him, as they retained their independence. His son Antiochus H. Even went as far as Th...race with an army. But we know nothing of his having made any permanent conquest there. Egypt therefore was in a good position in Anterior Asia, and if in spite of this it lost ground there, this must, apart from local circumstances which are unknown to us, have been due more to the history of the relations between Egypt and Macedonia. Of these we do hear some- thing, and it makes Egypt appear at a disadvantage. We will therefore take Europe first and return to Syria and Egypt afterwards. * The affairs of Europe, however, are also of far greater interest than those of Asia.
