What reading level is Modern Men of Letters Honestly Criticised book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When still a young man, and in the enviable posi- tion of the enjoyment of the fulfilment of his first and young ambition, " I shall be, " he wrote to O'Connell, " a representative of the people before the Repeal of the Union. " His prophecy had been fulfilled, and, happy in his quiet but " immense self- sufficiency " — to borrow a phrase from M. Louis Blanc — he set forward in his career as a member of Parliament. Now, the House of Commons, like every other large club where men congregate, and... where individual weight is felt, is just the place to take the nonsense out of a man. Each member soon falls to his natural level ; and the good nature as well as the good sense of the House is remarkable. The whole House, it has been said, has always more common sense and more genius than any single member, or than any dozen members, even though they were the best ; and it is curious to find how every new man, however great he may promise to be before his election, is absorbed in the House, and becomes, excepting in the rarest instance, a very small portion of it.
