What reading level is John Mackintosh a Biography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Correspondence.
"In a man's letters his soul lies naked ; his letters are only the mirrors of his heart. " Johnson.
In private letters we see the writer as he really is, and not as he is often represented or mis- represented. In public life and in business there is more or less of a pose, a certain amount of self-consciousness makes a man consider how he appears in the sight of others, and he acts accordingly. He is like a man facing a camera, and do what he may, it is almost impossible to be e...asy and natural under such circumstances. But good letters are snap-shots. When a man writes a letter he encloses his portrait whether he intends it or not ; for it is as easy to dis- tinguish the hypocrite from the honest man in his letters, as it is to discover any change of position in his photograph, no matter how cunningly the change was effected. The double face is as clearly seen in the one as in the other.
Most men are more intimate in their private correspondence and reveal the secrets of their hearts more unreservedly, than even in the privacy of their own homes.
