What reading level is The Political Career of Richard Brinsley Sheridan the Stanhope Essay for 1912 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But there is another side to the question. Had he been of a vindictive nature and cared to accumulate grievances, Sheridan would have had plenty of occasion to hate Fox, who treated him throughout with persistent bad faith. One striking instance may be given. When the Fox-North coalition went out of office Fox promised Sheridan a post of Cabinet rank if ever the Whigs came back. In 1789, when a Whig ministry seemed imminent, Sheridan, as has been seen, himself refused an important post which Fo...x apparently was willing for him to have. But the entry of All the Talents saw Sheridan thrown aside after long years of prominence in Opposition. He wrote to Fox and remonstrated, quoting the promise of Cabinet rank, and Fox did not deny the promise or offer to keep his word. Such a deser- tion, added to great disparity of temper, broke down a friendship which, had it lasted, might have been of inestimable value both to England and to the two men themselves.
