What reading level is Collected Essays volume 9 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The same thing is true of more advanced tribes, who iv CAPITAL THE MOTHER OF LABOUR. 153 are still merely hunters, such as the Esquimaux. They may expend more labour and skill; but it is spent in destruction.
When we pass from these to men who lead a purely pastoral life, like the South American Gauchos, or some Asiatic nomads, there is an im- portant change. Let us suppose the owner of a flock of sheep to live on the milk, cheese, and flesh which they yield. It is obvious that the flock stands... to him in the economic relation of the mother to the child, inasmuch as it supplies him with food-stuffs competent to make good the daily and hourly losses of his capital of work- stuff. If we imagine our sheep owner to have access to extensive pastures and to be troubled neither by predacious animals nor by rival shep- herds, the performance of his pastoral functions will hardly involve the expenditure of any more labour than is needful to provide him with the exercise required to maintain health.
