What reading level is The Huguenot Element Among the Dutch book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

But the impetus was given. The many schools the Huguenots founded, and the houses of educa- tion for both boys and girls, with knowledge unlocked before them, remained a privilege of Holland and a memento of their coming. And so, in one other respect their influence should here be noted, upon the pulpit and preaching of Holland — the source of our own earlier ministry. The preaching there had become too didactic, and in the effort to instruct, had lost force and fervor. But the Huguenot preache...rs soon injected French vivacity and fire into its veins, and turned Dutch phlegm into blood eloquence. Who has not heard of " Saurin's Sermons ?" What, however, is the best sermon in the book, with all its imagery, brilliancj^, fine method, purity of style, or the elevation and power of its thoughts to that same sermon (or any other) uttered by Saurin himself? And they had the man, settled at the Hague, the centre of influ- ence 5 of whom one asked, wbo heard him for the first time, " is this a man or an angel who is speaking to us f And so all were captivated by his melodious and resonant voice, his noble coun- tenance, his ardor, as well as his sermons and wonderful i^rayers.
