What reading level is An Address On Benjamin Franklin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When, in next September, the representatives of the several states shall meet in Philadelphia to celebrate the Centennial Anniversary of this deed of ratification, the final and most important scene of this period will be enacted ; and in that celebra- tion large space should be made for the recital of the part played by Franklin, who shares with Washington the immortal glory of winning and of keeping our freedom and our Union.
But do we not need his spirit of wise conciliation, of moderation, ...and of firm regard for the equal rights of all men, as much to-day, as they were needed in those perilous times of old ? The days of our worst political dangers may be passed, but we have to face the struggle with social and economic dangers no less menacing. If Franklin performed invaluable services to his country by educating the people in a knowledge of their political rights, and by advocating these at all times and in all places, until finally the aid and friendship of the most powerful nations were secured, he was even more conspicuously useful as the teacher of religious toleration, of sound morality, and of that shrewd, practical common sense, which recognizes sell interest as the mainspring of human action, but which, at the same time, enlarges and enlightens the conception of self-interest.
