What reading level is Biography of Hon Fernando Wood Mayor of the City of New York book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He began, advanced, and perfected his police reform, with wondrous quickness and with admirable result. New- York was changed as in a moment. To quote from the Boston Advertiser : " Immediately after bis inauguration lie issued a proclamation which gave New- York assurance of a man. He followed up his words with deeds. The effect of his energetic action was instantly and powerfully felt. The two thousand three hundred drinking-shops, which had poured forth riot and madness into the streets of t...he city on the Lord s day, were reduced almost at once to less than twenty. Like another Caliph Harouu, Mr. Wood seemed to be ubiquitous. He paralyzed the hand of barkeepers grown bold with long impu nity, by the sudden revelation of his name and office, and by the same talisman struck insolent policemen dumb in the moment of their mis conduct or their neglect. Wherever his authority clearly extended, he made it felt and respected, and he did not hesitate, wherever that authority was doubtful, to take upon himself the responsibility of decided action, if the public good seemed to demand his interference.
