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

" Its effect was greatly deep- ened by an attempt in December to free Ricard O'Sul- livan Burke from Clerkenwell Prison, in London. The idea in this criminally reckless exploit was to blow a hole in the prison-wall with a barrel of gunpowder. The barrel was misplaced, however, and twelve poor people were killed and more than one hundred injured. The Irish famine made far less impression on the bulk of middle-class England than the Clerkenwell explosions and the executions of Allen, Larkin, and ...O'Brien. These two affairs, both occurring in 1867, stirred a new England. It was, in part, the England of no-popery, race hatred, and race contempt. But it was also an England politically virginaj; With its great industrial connections in Scotland and Wales, it was, on the whole, quite different from the old-fashioned country which had always supported the lord, the bishop, and the squire. Fed by the same newspapers and looking to the same parliament, it still beheld in Fenianism a problem which it could not quite understand.
