What reading level is A South Side View of Slavery book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Our clerical calling cherishes our sensibilities, makes them quick and impulsive ; but a lawyer is sup- posed to discriminate between what is specially benevo- lent and the obligations which we owe to the social com- pact: from him we expect to learn that an unlawful way of seeking a supposed good is fraught with a de- structive principle, before which every thing may be laid waste. That compassion for a fugitive slave which leads one to abrogate the constitution of society is not benev- olent,... nor does it secure respect from any but radicals — a class of men, in all ages of the world, who have uni- formly failed to secure the confidence of mankind.
A SOUTH-SIDE VIEW OF SLAVERY.
CHAPTER XI.
NEW POSSIBLE ISSUES ON THE SUBJECT OF SLAVERY.
Anj> can there be no end to our division and strife with regard to this subject ? Are we to spend the rest of this century debating it and contending over it? None can describe the vast harm which it has done to all our social relations. It has been the occasion of more unkind feelings and words, probably, than any other sub- ject ; it has alienated friends, divided great ecclesiastical communions, disturbed the peace of churches and par- ishes, led to the dismission of ministers, driven many into infidelity, embarrassed legislation, filled great sec- tions of the country with jealousy of each other, con- sumed the strength and zeal which were needed to rem- edy evils among ourselves, and, at the present time, is threatening us with greater mischief than ever before.
