What reading level is The Works of John Ruskin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Frederick the Great chose his clerks in the same way; but then, his clerks never supposed themselves likely to be king, while a mer^ chant's clerks are apt to hope they may at least become partners, if not successors. Also, Friedrich's clerks were absolutely fit for their business; but my father's clerks were, in many ways, utterly unfit for theirs. Of which unfitness my father greatly complaining, nevertheless by no means bestirred himself to find fitter ones. He used to send Henry Watson on b...usiness tours, and assure him afterwards that he had done more harm than good: he would now and then leave Henry Ritchie to write a business letter; and, I think, find with some satisfaction that it was needful afterwards to write two, himself, in correction of it. There was scarcely a day when he did not come home in some irritation at something that one or other of them had done, or not done. But they stayed with him till his death.
198. Of the second in command, Mr. Ritchie, I will say what is needful in another place;* but the clerk of confidence, Henry Watson, has already been left imnoticed too long.
