What reading level is Howard, the Philanthropist: And His Friends book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Three days after this memorable scene, a further report from the Committee on the Prisons Bill was presented, and the next day, March 6th, it was ordered that the Bill be turned into two Bills. Both Bills were ultimately passed — ^the first, for the abolition of fees, on the 31st of March; the second, for the cleans- ing of prisons, and other details relating to prisoners' health, on the 2nd of June.^ The making of these laws, we may be pretty sure, gave Howard more satisfaction than the ceremo...ny performed before the assembled House. No sooner were the Acts passed, than he had copies of them printed to be sent to every prison in- the kingdom.
The passing of them was good so far as it went; but they provided no means of efficiently carry- ing out the contemplated reforms. No Inspectors were appointed, no machinery whatever was contrived for securing obedience. Reports from Government officers as to effects of the new legislation will be looked for in vain. Howard, in his books on prisons, is the only reporter ; and if he had not at his own expense largely circulated what he wrote, little or * Journals.
