What reading level is Memoir of William Wilberforce book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Pitt, on the 9th of May, introduced and carried the following resolution : " That this house will, early in the next session of parliament, proceed to take into consideration the circumstance of the slave-trade, complained of in the said peti- tion, and what may be fit to be done thereupon. " In the course of the discussion on this motion, Mr. Fox complained of the ignorance in which Mr. Pitt had left the house respecting his own views, and of the delay which his proposition involved, declaring... that, for himself, he had no scruple about asserting, at the outset, that the slave-trade ought not to be regulated, but de- stroyed. To this opinion he said his mind was made up ; and he was persuaded that the more the subject was considered, the more his view of it would gain ground : and it would be admitted, that to consider it in any other manner, or on any other principles than those of humanity and justice, would be idle and absurd. It is interest- ing to observe these two great men, who divided 40 MEMOIR OF the admiration and confidence of political parties, and who were usually ranged on opposite sides of the question in debate, concurring in the future stages of this benevolent measure.
