What reading level is The Normans in Europe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

K. d, township and hundred decreased in influence, while the manorial courts became more and more important, and threatened, at the time of the Norman Conquest, soon to supersede them entirely.
(3) Growth of Burg'hs.-rThe growth of burghs tended to the same end. Originally the Anglo-Saxons were not fond of municipal life, and neglected any remains of Roman organization which may have survived among tlie British after the Roman occupation, the township, it must be remembered, being in no sense a
... town as we should call it, but a rural subdivision of the free commu- nity. But in time the villages grew ; the smaller " burghs *' became a kind of civic township, with their borough- moot corresponding to the rural township court; the larger, comprising a collection of townships, each with their separate borough -moot, gained an organization similar to that of the hundred, with their Ward-mote or civic Hundred court.
These larger towns, standing apart from the neigh- bouring hundred, would enjoy certain rights of jurisdic- tion independent of the Hundred but subject to the Shire court, and in some cases paid a composition by which they gained immunity from arbitrary exactions.
