What reading level is The Life of the Marquis of Dufferin And Ava volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But the encumbrances, most of which he had inherited with the estate, pressed heavily on a falling rent roll ; the trend of legislation was adverse to landlords ; so that prudence dictated to him the sale of the greater part of his land, and this change in his position and prospects must have inevi- tably affected his subsequent career. So far as it turned him toward foreign service, this may be reckoned to his advantage, for he rose to eminence and distinc- tion. Yet for a man with his tastes ...and habits, among which must be included an hereditary propensity to profuse generosity — to large and liberal expenditure in high places — this separation from the land was probably detrimental, because the preservation of his ancestral estate would always have been his first concern, would have acted as a check upon incautious magnificence, and might have saved him, it is likely, from being left, after a series of great and for the most part costly appointments, with a small property and a straitened income.
