What reading level is The Knights Templars book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Carizmians were encamped on the left bank of the Eu- phrates, pasturing their cavalry in the neighbouring plains, when their chief, Barbeh Khan, received a deputation from the sultan of Egypt, inviting their co-operation and assistance in the reduction of Palestine. Their cupidity was awakened by an exaggerated account of the fertility and the wealth of the land, and they were offered a settlement in the country as soon as it was rescued from the hands of the Franks. The messengers displaye...d the written letters of the sultan of Egypt ; they pre- sented to the Carizmian chief some rich shawls and magnificent presents, and returned to their master at Grand Cairo with pro- mises of speedy support. The Carizmians assembled together in a body; they crossed the Euphrates (A. D. 1244) in small leathern boats, ravaged the territories of the sultan of Aleppo, and marched up the plain of the Orontes to Hems, wasting all the country around them with fire and the sword. The intelli- gence of these events reached the Grand Master of the Temple when he was busily engaged in rebuilding the vast and exten- sive fortifications of the Holy City.
