What reading level is Lincoln And Liquor volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Secretary Chase, a most accompHshed and suc- cessful financier, had exhausted every resource of the country. The famihes of soldiers, to my certain knowl- edge, were without food, and some of them without shelter. Napoleon said, ''Make the vices pay the bills, " and so they came to President Lincoln and pleaded with him to recoup the empty treasury by taxing liquors. He revolted at once. "Never, " said he, "will I consent to that infamy. " Lincoln, great as he was and good as he was, was not so... great as his party. He had to yield to the pressure — to my certain knowledge with the specific agreement that it was only and distinctly "a war meas- ure, " to be repealed as soon as the war was over. I know positively how the great Lincoln struggled days over this matter, but a person not conversant with ex- isting conditions can form no idea of the pressure.^^ In another letter Major Merwin writes: Mr. Chase sent for me for two consultations on the matter, he was so much afraid I should advise against it.
