What reading level is History of Massachusetts volume 3 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The memori al was approved by a vote of 406 to 240. The address to the people, published after the declara tion of war, was adopted by a similar majority.
This vote in the House of Representatives was, probably, a just indication of the opinion of the whole body of the people in Massachusetts, relat ing to the policy of the war of 1812. Three fifths of the citizens, perhaps, a greater proportion were opposed to a wax with Great Britain, both before and after the formal declaration of it by Cong...ress. The people generally, believed all wars improper, which were not necessary for maintaining the lib erty and independence of the country.
The war was also unpopular in other parts of the United States. There was a belief, with many patriotic and intelligent men, in various parts of the country, how well founded, it would be diffi cult to decide, that the measure was owing, in a degree, to a disposition in the national rulers to keep in favour with the French Emperor, who had undertaken to dictate the policy of the United States ; and that, if war could not be avoided, both with France and England, there were strong er reasons for engaging in it against the former, than against the latter, as the American Merchants had suffered most by French depredations, without re ceiving any reparation, and the British had al ways appeared willing to settle all national dis putes by negotiation.
