What reading level is A Summary View of America Comprising a Description of the Face of the Country book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Penn, when he issued proposals for colonizing Pennsylvania, offered protection and equality to all without, distinction of religious belief, and guarantied them afterwards by law, for which he has re ceived applause of the highest kind : but the fact is, that he followed instead of leading, in the path of even-handed justice. It was a Catholic who first led the way. All the American States at the present day have Constitutions framed on the basis of the same equality as the colonies of 198 THE ...CATHOLICS. Maryland and Pennsylvania; the benefit of which is felt by all and acknowledged by all. The co lonial legislature of New York had at one time exclusory laws operating on the Catholics : their repeal produced nothing but good. From these circumstances, may we not cherish the hope that the day is approaching, when England will adopt a similar policy towards them ? Let not that country which was the first to exhibit to the world a government founded on rational princi ples of liberty (for the Grecian and Italian re publics were badly framed) be the last to per form an act of justice to men who profess the same principles as the Barons at Runnymead, CHAPTER XV.
