What reading level is America And the Young Intellectual book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I shall not stress this point because Amer- icans understand it only too well; it would make us angry, if it did not make us laugh. After all, Eng- lishmen are hardly to be blamed for not seeing the point. Our own snobs with money have flattered them to the top of their bent. Yet nationally we are of the mood of Mark Twain when he wrote U A Con- 122 ROOTS of ANTI-BRITISH FEELING necticut Yankee"; it is still true that we regard our- selves as the salt of the earth. And while I do not seek to pa...ss any judgment on these respective claims to superiority, I may perhaps point out that no genuine Anglo-American entente cordiale can come into existence until England has accepted the fact of America, as, after four horrible years, she had to accept the fact of Germany. It is because I for one want that acceptance to come without the bloody intrusion of war, and because so many of my own friends are Englishmen, that I commend to the liberal Englishman's attention these few unpalatable truths.
The present condition of things is altogether un- natural.
