What reading level is Isabella Thoburn book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
All those who had the direction of the Society were men, and Christendom has ever been slow to recognize the possibilities of women and the value of their service in the extension oi the Redeemer's Kingdom. It was true that many young women seemed to be eager for missionary service, but this seemed only to add to the perplexity of the officials. Dr. Dur- bin, one of the strong men of the Church and the secretary of the Society, wails : "If I wanted fifty 1 6 Isabella Thoburn young ladies, I cou...ld find them in a week ; but when I want five young men, I must search for them a year or more. " That it might be possible that God was moving the hearts of the young women, and that they might be exceedingly serviceable in the evangelization of the darkened peoples of the earth, seems not to have entered the male mind. And yet Miss Thoburn was so earnest and devoted a woman and so loyal a Methodist, that when she applied to the Society to be sent to India, they felt that they could not send her and yet scarcely dared to refuse to do so.
