What reading level is Greater Britain a Record of Travel in English Speaking Countries During 1866 An book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is unfortunately the fact, that colonial artisans do not sufficiently bear in mind the distinction between real and nominal wages, but are easily caught by the show of an extra few shillings a week, even though the purchasing power of each shil- ling be diminished by the change. When looked into, " higher wages" often mean that the laborer, instead of starving upon ten shillings a week, is for the future to starve upon twenty.
As regards the future, contrasted with the tempo- rary condition ...of the Australian laborer, there is no disguising the fact that mere exclusion of immigration will not in the long run avail him. It might, of course, be urged that immigration is, even in America, a small matter by the side of the natural increase of the peo- ple, and that to shut out the immigrant is but one of many checks to population ; but in Australia the natural increase is not so great as in a young country might be expected. The men so largely outnumber the women in Australia, that even early marriages and large families cannot make the birth-rate very high, and fertile land being at present still to be obtained at first hand, the new agricultural districts swallow up the natural increase of the Copulation.
