What reading level is Abraham Lincoln in 1854 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
THE HUMANITY OF THE NEGRO.
Where the whole is of uniform excellence it is not easy to make extracts, but I shall make one or two, the first one touching the theme of the humanity of the negro, which the Douglas doctrine of "popular sover- eignty" ignored : ■'The great majority, South as well as North (he said), have human sympathies, of which they can no more divest themselves than they can of their sensibility to physical pain. These sympathies, in the bosoms of the Southern people, manifest, ...in many ways, their sense of the wrong of slavery and their consciousness that, after all, there is humanity in the negro. If they deny this let me address them a few plain questions. In 1820 you joined the North in declaring the African slave trade piracy and annexing to it the punishment of death. Why did you do this? If you did not feel that it was wrong why did you join in providing that men should be hung for it? The practice was no more than bringing wild negroes from Africa to such as would buy them.
