What reading level is An American History book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
1 We must remember in all our study and judgment of the problems which the presence of the negro in the South has forced upon our country, that it was not so much the colonists as the British merchants and capitalists who were responsible for the slave traffic in the eighteenth cen tury ; and that among the colonists themselves it was not the men of the South alone who were at fault, since the New Eng land rum distillers were responsible for bringing thousands of negroes from Africa to sell as ...slaves in the West Indies.
We find it hard to realize the inhumanity of earlier genera- 431. Slavery tions. That our colonial forefathers could have been so jealous Jhe^ionies for the protection of their own rights and freedom and for the proper forms of the worship of God, and still hold human beings in bondage, seems to us utterly inconsistent. Yet it is true that there was almost no sentiment against negro slavery in the col onies. All the colonial legislatures recognized slavery as legal. Only a few individuals protested against it.
