What reading level is The Making of the British Empire (A.D. 1714-1832) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Peace of Paris had been very ^"**- ^5*3- unpopular; the budget, which included a tax on cidery^ had roused opposition, especially in the western counties.
Moreover, Bute was hated as being a native of Scotland, as having been the cause of the fall of Pitt, and as hiaving shown a singular want of administrative ability. The firSt attempt of the king to direct the government of the country had proved a failure. Instead of giving the country a strong government, independent of the intrigues of... the court and of faction, and resting on the support of the country, George III. had endeavoured to support Bute by an unprecedented exercise of corrupt influence and intimidation. It w^as not till 1770 that, with Lord N6rth as his minister, George regained the influence which he enjoyed on his accession; it was not till the Revolutionary wars that he recovered his early popularity.
Bute was succeeded by George Grenville, who formed an administration which Lord Macaulay has described as **on the whole the worst which has gov- j^e Orenviiie erned England since the Revolution".
