What reading level is Essays And Addresses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

§ Franklin MacVeagh. ^Attorney General Griggs. 232 CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNMENT These quotations, selected from many, are here produced merely to show a trend of thought which is believed to bode no good to constitutional government. It is the nature of arbitrary power to grow by what it feeds on. This is especially true of unrestrained military power. When wielded by "those who have things to do" it is apt to be much less tedious in its operation than are the slow processes through which governme...nt by public opin- ion works out its results. For this reason delegated au- thority and arbitrary power do not work well together. Indeed, those who are now trying to act at one and the same time as the public servants of a free people and as the despotic rulers of subject peoples already exhibit signs of impatience with the old methods, even at home. The words "treason" and "traitor" have been widely hurled at senators of the United States merely because they were unwilling to surrender their constitutional duty carefully to consider and discuss the treaty of peace.
