What reading level is Charter Oak book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
James II. , wishing to make Connecticut a part of his con- solidated New England under Andros (q. V. ), found its charter in the way; and as the colony declined to surrender it, he brought writs of quo warranto to vacate it, the last of which was return- able in February 1687. To delay or avoid voluntary surrender, yet escape for- feiture and entire outlawry of rights, they replied that they would much rather stay as they were, but if they could not, preferred a provincial union under An- dros ...over annexation to any other prov- ince. The Council chose to consider this a formal waiver of charter rights, and dropped proceedings under the writ ; and on 31 October 1687 Andros rode over from Norwich to Hartford, under orders to assume the government. Call- ing the governor and council together, he demanded surrender of the charter according to their dutiful assurances. The meeting was secret; what happened we learn only from tradition, and the brief account of a later intimate of the actors.
