What reading level is Americas Debt to Thomas Paine book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The scene at Albany, as described by Rickman, indicates the feeling that prevailed when this bold pamphlet was first issued. . A perspiration of fear seemed to start out all over the land, but it was soon suc- ceeded by a thrill of patriotism that fired the veins of America until the "Common Sense" of Paine was vindicated, and the cry of liberty burst from every foot of soil in the United States.
Rickman says, "When 'Common Sense' arrived at Al" bany, the Convention of New York was in session.... General Scott, a leading member, alarmed at the boldness and nov- elty of its arguments, mentioned his fears to several of his distinguished colleagues, and suggested a private meeting in the evening, for the purpose of writing an answer. They accordingly met, and Mr. McKesson read the pamphlet through. At first it was deemed both necessary and expe- dient to answer it immediately ; but casting about for the necessary arguments, they concluded to adjourn and meet again. In a few evenings they assembled, but so rapid was the change of opinion in the Colonies at large that they ultimately agreed not to oppose it.
