What reading level is Boston Common book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Human nature we believe will always respond to martial music, even when Peace reigns on earth. The love of martial music is not necessarily connected with approbation of war, nor does it necessarily promote a warlike spirit. So long as civil govern- ment exists, the magistrate will bear the sword, and the accompaniments of it are martial music and the military parade. We have no sympathy with the attempts to ridicule military exhibitions. We may as well ridicule the court house and the judge ; ...for there is in the constitution of things a connection between them. This is no place to discuss the militia system. We may write and speak about the horrors of war and the blessings of peace, and still love martial music and the display of arms. Our turbulent natures are im- pressed by the proper emblems of power. The MILITARY EXHIBITIONS. 29 progress of society, the intercourse of nations by steam power, liberal principles of trade, and self- interest, will do much to secure the peace of the world, and standing armies and militia systems will fall to pieces by their own weight ; but so long as subordination is necessary in human society, we believe that martial sights and sounds will be as interesting as ever.
