What reading level is Missouri a Bone of Contention book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Livingston held much the same lan- guage in Paris, and made good use of the hostile out- burst by way of enforcing the proposition which he had previously submitted to the French cabinet for the pur- chase of New Orleans and the Floridas. Congress, too, took up the matter, and in February, 1803, after a lengthy debate, resolutions of a decidedly belligerent character were adopted. Before the news of this action could reach Europe, the Spanish king " had disapproved of the order of Mo- rales, pr...ohibiting the introduction of goods, wares, and merchandise from the United States into the port of New Orleans, and had ordered that the United States should continue to enjoy the right of deposit there, but without prejudice to his right of substituting some other spot on the banks of the Mississippi, " as provided in the treaty of Madrid. Unquestionably this was a politic move, and a few years earlier it would have been hailed as a harbinger of peace by the people of the Ohio valley ; but of late, events had moved rapidly both in Europe and America, and the time had gone by when the destiny of Louisiana could be affected by any- thing that Spain might or might not do.
