What reading level is The Man Who Invented Christmas: How Charles Dickens's a Christmas Carol Rescued His Career And Revived Our Holiday Spirits book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
about politics and politicians, including those at the expense of James Crossley, a rather stoutly built local who opposed Cobden fiercely.One of the chief topics of discussion was Cobden’s involvement in the national Anti–Corn Law League. Cobden, who had in 1839 spearheaded a similar local organization in Manchester, had been successful in organizing a national committee to unite all interests who sought to put an end to the tariffs protecting Britain’s landed gentry. A former member of the Man...chester Chamber of Commerce and one of the city’s first aldermen, Cobden was elected to Parliament in 1841, and he quickly became one of the principal spokesmen against the vested interests propping up British grain prices and keeping the price of bread artificially high.The severe depression of 1840–42, combined with a series of bad harvests, led to shortages and high prices that increased support among the general British population for Cobden’s position. The group also picked up the backing of manufacturers, who feared that the duties that kept corn prices inflated would ultimately lead to stoppages by workmen seeking higher wages.
