What reading level is The Public Life of Joseph Dudley a Study of the Colonial Policy of the Stuarts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

On January 4, 1690, a commission and set of instructions were issued to Colonel Henry Sloughter, in which a Council was named containing none of the names of the revolutionists, but including Van Cortlandt and Bayard, the most bitter opponents of Leisler. 2 Had Sloughter himself come directly to New York and presented his commission, Leisler doubtless would have at once surrendered ; but, unfortunately, before he arrived his deputy, Ingoldsby, reached New York, and Dudley came upon the scene. I...ngoldsby demanded the surrender of the fort, but could show only Sloughter's deputa- tion to him, as his authority. This Leisler was perhaps correct in refusing to recognize. In the strained relations which followed it was difficult to keep peace; protests and counter-protests were issued by Leisler and the newly-appointed Council under Dudley, and finally, on March 17, Leisler opened fire and killed two of the king's soldiers. Even when Slough- ter arrived, Leisler attempted to make terms for himself, but finally submitted and was detained as a prisoner.
