What reading level is The Portable Edmund Burke (Portable Library) book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Catholics could more easily purchase and inherit land, and priests were no longer jailed merely for saying mass. Noturithstanding the minor nature of the concessions, a backlash of anti-popery sentiment spread through England, culminating in the bloody anti-Catholic riots led by Lord George Gordon in June 1780. Burke, a committed Anglican, was widely known to be sympathetic to the cause of Catholic rights and was himself a target of the rioters’ anger. His constituents in Bristol were unhappy wi...th his interests in Catholic rights, and in this address to them he candidly sets forth his positions on Catholic issues.
GENTLEMEN, I ought to apologize to you for seeming to think anything at all necessary to be said upon this matter. The calumny is fitter to be scrawled with the midnight chalk of incendiaries, with “No Popery,” on walls and doors of devoted houses, than to be mentioned in any civilized company. I had heard that the spirit of discontent on that subject was very prevalent here.
