What reading level is Objections to the Act of Congress Commonly Called the Fugitive Slave Law Answer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The United States may be regarded, (now since the unanimous adoption of the Constitution), as one great legal body, corporation or country, and in this view the delivery and transfer of a fu- gitive, who claims the right of trial, is merely a settlement or change of "venue, " as it is called, or place of trial. The United States may also be regarded as a league or union of sovereign States by virtue of a solemn compact or treaty called the Constitution of the United States. It is intended to be... a treaty of perpetual peace, amity, and alli- ance ; and in so far as it is a treaty, it is, according to the law of nations, the highest law of the land of each of the sovereign contracting parties, and as such would have su- premacy over, and take precedence of, all internal and municipal regulations of the several parties, even if this supremacy had not been distinctly declared and confirmed in the instrument itself. This treaty may be altered and amended in the way provided by it, but, like any other treaty, it cannot legally be abrogated or annulled except by the unanimous consent of the high contracting parties.
