What reading level is America Faces the Future book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Does the trouble lie in the fact that the ablest and most scrupulous men will not run for office? Or is it that the people are too ignorant to vote for the better candidates whose names appear on the ballots? Or is it that the nominating machinery does not get the best men upon the ballots? The answer seems to be a partial yes to all these questions. The best men do not usually run for office, because, among other reasons, they know that they have small chance of being nominated, or, if nominat
...ed, of being elected. The nomination of candidates for public office, whether it takes place at conventions or at direct primaries, is usually controlled by party organiza- tions, and these organizations will usually put up only candidates whom they trust to further the party interests. Even if independent candidates are nomi- nated, the chances are that unless the candidate is unusually conspicuous a preponderant number of voters will follow the party standards and defeat the independents. In short, our government is a govern- ment, ultimately, by party organizations.
