What reading level is Golden Lives a Memoir of Charles And Katherine Rochester Shepard book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Shepard read law in the office of the late Judge Isaac L. Endress of Dansville, where he is said to have become remarkably pro- ficient as a legal draughtsman; but he never practiced law. The management of the fam- mily's and his own property, the duties of local agent for several of the older and leading fire insurance companies for many years, — extending to forty-five years for the ^Etna and nearly as long for the Home Insurance Company of New York — and the discharge of public trusts or com...missions of a non-polit- ical nature on a number of occasions, filled a large part of his active life. In his earlier manhood, although never holding important public office, he took an active part in politics, being a most ardent supporter of Henry Clay, and enjoying that great statesman's personal acquaintance. Among his reminiscences of those times was an account he used to give of hearing short speeches by Webster, Clay, and Calhoun in the United States Senate, all on the same day, — March 8, 1850, — the day after Webster's famous speech which so alienated his anti-slavery adherents.
