What reading level is A Plea for Alphabetic Reform book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

E giving a distinct, vocal impulse to each syll- able, is essential to good speaking It is as important to be observed in singing. To this end, a syllable should, wherever possible, be- gin with a consonant, and end with a vowel; for it is the vowel that opens the mouth and carries the sound: etymology, in this case, is subordinated to distinctness. We therefore say and sing, bri-tur not brit-ur gra-tur not grat-ur ma-cur „ mac-ur le-ping // iep-ing fle-ting, flet-ing so-ro /, sor-o fo-16 // fo...l-6 me-zhur // mezh-ur The only exception to this rule, is in sylla- bles ending with ng, which never begins an English word or syllable, thus, we can only say or sing, long-ing sing-ing bring-ing When there are two consonants, one end- ing the first, and another begining the second syllable, both should, of course, be distinctly pronounced, thus, con-cur man-shon par-ted end-les ev-mng stan-ding nor-mal mon-stur There should, of course, be no actual rest or pause between the syllables, in the utter- ance, of this class of words, such as here ap- peals to the eye, when they are syllabized by typic characters.
