What reading level is Emancipation of Slaves in Rebel States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is sound.
"As to giving freedom to five million slaves on the principle of a military neces- sity to suppress insurrection, it is an idle dream. " I agree to the dream also. .
" Slavery cannot be abolished in a State by act of Congress. The tiling is impos- sible. ''' Very well ; that is right. Now, as the gentleman says, he and all other men are tied hand and foot by the Constitution, and it is impossible to escape from it ; and Congress has no power under the Constitution to emancipate sla...ves.
I supposed he was going to come out with some violent mode of breaking the bonds that bind him ; but instead of that, he pro- poses to get out of it by a process that is perfectly gentle and harmless. How is that? Why he tells us that — " The human mind has outgrown that superstitious reverence for Government of any kind which makes rebellion a crime per se. " That is his method of getting rid of the bonds of the Constitu- tion. The Constitution must be repudiated, because the human mind has outgrown that superstitious reverence for Government of any kind !
