What reading level is John C Calhoun book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This man, who had received his whole edu- cation in his native state, who had never held a national office, whose every interest, professional, material and social, centred in South Carolina, and who yielded to none in his devotion to her, had, nevertheless, imbibed a patriotism broader than his state could satisfy, and was one of a large class of Carolinians who looked with grave apprehension upon the growing spirit of disunion. The substitute for it which Calhoun offered they regarded with re...- pugnance and contempt, and they were extremely proud of the record of the state, which had been so notable in making the Union strong.
In the constitutional convention, South Carolina had been represented by Federalists. Charles Pinckney made the motion in that body "that the national legislature should have the authority to CALHOUN'S OPPONENTS 117 negative all [state] laws which they should judge to be improper. '' "The states, " he said, "must be kept in due subordination to the nation. " John Butledge moved the clause making the Constitution " the supreme law of the several states aud of their citizens and inhabitants, " and Pierce Butler and General Charles Cotesworth Pinckney, the other delegates from South Carolina, were in full accord with the Federalist understanding of the Constitu- tion.
