What reading level is Chronicles of the Builders volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
So much we see, so little we know of those about us, that, on lifting the coverings of conventionalism and penetrating the personality, even of well-known char acters, we find ourselves far away from our supposed point of view, and involved in investigations as bot tomless as eternity. Underneath these same conven tional coverings of finer or coarser aspect, we may behold, where least expected, the flood-tide of genius, the slow flow of martyrdom, undreamed of exaltation of soul, with now and t...hen mighty problems under going solution by mighty minds. It may be thus, or otherwise; and when we expected much, find little. From behind pleasing manners we may draw forth the hypocrite, or find hidden beneath an impetuous exterior, the true nobility of calm.
What should we say, for example, of James Parker Tread well, knowing him little ; what was he, knowing him well ? In the town directory, he was called attorney and capitalist. This was true, for he was a millionaire. But it would be erroneous to infer that he took delight in other men's quarrels, or that his mind was altogether absorbed in acquiring wealth.
