What reading level is George Mason of Virginia Citizen Statesman Philosopher book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Honor a powerful corporation. A man of unquestioned ability, unimpeachable integrity, and large practical experience. Meeting the first men of the nation on terms of equality. Second to none in financial and social station.
He owned or chartered a number of ships sailing from ports in Virginia and Maryland, and engaged in the carrying trade of the colonies North and South with the Mother Country, France and the West Indies, and therefore may be said to have been the founder of our Merchant Mari...ne. Such ships as the "Washington, " the "Augusta, " and the "Confidence, " bore his sons to and from France upon various occasions.
Yet he was among the first to seize the sword, declare for independence, take up the cause of liberty, and spend his time and money in behalf of Freedom. The radical is usually the man who has nothing to lose and everything to gain by public tumult, or the over-turning of long established social and political institutions.
Here, however, was a wealthy, highly educated, so cially powerful and mentally influential man, one of the most notable in Virginia, who in revolution had every thing to lose by failure, and absolutely nothing to gain by success, but the freedom of his country.
