What reading level is The Puritan in Holland England And America An Introduction to American Histor book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Debt and crime also swelled the ranks of the unfree. Fathers sold their children, husbands their wives. The master could slay his chattel ; it was only the loss of a thing.
Fleeing from bondage, he might be chased as a strayed beast, and flogged to death if a man, or burned if a wom- an.f The progress of Christianity produced a little ame- lioration of his state. One bishop denied Christian bur- ial to kidnappers, and prohibited the sale of children by their parents after the age of seven. Anot...her punished with excommunication the sale of child or kinsfolk.
Many owners manumitted their slaves, and the slave- trade from English ports was finally, in the tenth centu- ry, prohibited by law. This prohibition, however, for a long time remained ineffective. Until the Conquest the wealth of English nobles was said sometimes to spring from breeding slaves for market. It was not until the reign of the first Norman liing that the traffic was finally suppressed.:!: Across this dark and dreary waste we can here and there catch glimpses of sunshine, although fitful and evanescent.
