What reading level is A Great Labour Leader Being a Life of the Right Hon Thomas Burt Mp book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When Mr. Burt appeared before the Committee, the chairman asked him, with his customary abruptness, " What are you ? " "A coal-hewer, " said Mr. Burt — an answer which was also returned by Mr. William Crawford when he was asked the same question. Mr. Ayrton put this astonishing coal-hewer through an examination on the subject of the employment of children in the mines, and the answers of Mr. Burt throw much light on what, after sundry but not great reformations, had come to be the conditions of... life in the mining districts of Northumberland a little more than forty years since. He said that at that time something like 1, 500 boys were employed in the pits, at ages ranging from ten to fourteen years. " They are engaged with their work twelve hours, " he explained ; " and, of course, they are necessarily engaged a greater length of time than that. They are necessarily engaged from fourteen to fifteen hours in the day between leaving their homes and returning. " A question which followed seems rather foolish and un- necessary, but it was probably well-intentioned.
