What reading level is Democracy in America book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It has the vision of a higher culture and is guided by fixed princi- ples. It breaks with tradition and is not dis- posed to compromise.
This stalwart type was represented in the colonial period of America by the Puritans who dominated in New England and more or less in all of the colonies. About the middle of the eight- eenth century it began to give way to the pragmat- ic type. The general prosperity, following the pioneer period of hardship, tended to give the lead- ership to men who had acc...omplished material re- sults, and who valued success more than loyalty to principle or ideal. The stalwart type arose again triumphant during the Revolutionary period, but was soon thereafter superseded by the pragmatists who ruled supreme until the tide of the anti-slav- ery sentiment brought the stalwarts back into power 220 DEMOCRACY IN AMERICA for the period of the Civil War. Immediately fol- lowing the death of Lincoln, the pragmatists gained absolute sway over every domain of national life and maintained their hold almost without a strug- gle, no matter what political party was in power, until the beginning of the twentieth century.
