What reading level is The Story of Old Halifax book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

John Royds at his new house in George Street, (now named Somerset House) which was then the finest mansion in Halifax, and contains some fine plaster-work. The Marquis had been Prime Minister of England, and is famed for his patronage of, and friendship for Edmund Burke, the famous writer and politician.
At the S])ring Assizes at York in 1770, about two dozen of the coiners were on trial. David Hartley and James Oldfield were sentenced to death, and executed for coining. " King David " tried to
... save his life by giving evidence against his friends, and he stated that Normanton and 1'homas were the murderers, and his brother Isaac would confirm him.
The trials of the other prisoners were postponed to the next Assizes, and the coiners released on bail. The prisons of England were so crowded at this time, that there was not room to keep even those charged with murder, in gaol. The murder trial was taken at the August Assizes, when James Broadbent gave most CRAGG COINERS.
195 minute details of what had happened on the night of the murder, although we may be quite sure that he was nowhere near the scene on that night.
