What reading level is Aspects of Americanization book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is strange that so many of the self-styled "Amer- icanizers" should rail at the foreign-language press on the theory that it helps to isolate the alien and pre- serve his racial interests and tendencies. This is ac- tually far from being the truth. The foreign-language press serves more than one purpose: it keeps the immi- grant of the first generation in some touch with his homeland, with its politics, its general interests, and 84 THE FOREIGN-LANGUAGE PRESS even, in some instances, with th...e gossip of his own small neighborhood. The desire of the newly arrived immigrant for this type of information is not only natural but even praiseworthy. He who shifts from the old love too easily will certainly be fickle in his newer affections. In the next generation this need has passed in large part, and in the third generation it exists no longer. Three generations is not too long in which to make an American citizen. But over and above this, the foreign-language press is a very definite factor in assimilation.
