What reading level is A Footnote to History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For some while, heand Moors fought their difficult battle in conjunction; in the course ofwhich, first one, and then the other, paid a visit home to reason withthe authorities at Washington; and during the consul's absence, there wasfound an American clerk in Apia, William Blacklock, to perform the dutiesof the office with remarkable ability and courage. The three names justbrought together, Sewall, Moors, and Blacklock, make the head and frontof the opposition; if Tamasese fell, if Brandeis wa...s driven forth, if thetreaty of Berlin was signed, theirs is the blame or the credit.
To understand the feelings of self-reproach and bitterness with whichSewall took the field, the reader must see Laupepa's letter of farewellto the consuls of England and America. It is singular that this far frombrilliant or dignified monarch, writing in the forest, in heaviness ofspirit and under pressure for time, should have left behind him not onlyone, but two remarkable and most effective documents. The farewell tohis people was touching; the farewell to the consuls, for a man of thecharacter of Sewall, must have cut like a whip.
