What reading level is Address to the People of St Helena Parish book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

We feared that England would refuse to take onr coitons — she has not refused. We teared that she would re;aliate our tax on her manufactures by a tax on our raw materials — she has not retaliated, for her own sake — it would have enabled her rivals to undersell her. Presuming her inability to sell, we pre- sumed a like inability to buy from us. We estimate aright nei- ther the extent, nor the flexibility of her commercial resources. While Congress dammed out her commodities in one directiv^n, ...they flowed in upon us in another, and we found, by experience, that in the face of a system deemed piohibitory, she returned us the full amount of the products, which she still cont nued to pur- chase of us without stint, (more circuitously indeed, and therefore at some slight mutual loss, but she did make the return. ) We feared that the revenue wouid fail — that the public debt would be fastened immoveably upon us, and that direct taxation would be superadded to our other burtliens! Again we were wrong: the revenue increased beyond the wants of government, and tlie great difficulty has been to reduce it.
