What reading level is Order of Exercises And Addresses At the Dedication of the Carnegie Library of Be book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Dante did not become famous till some centuries after his death. John Bunyan was derided by all the critics of his own period, and the poet Cowper, who flourished nearly a century later, said that in polite society the "Pilgrim's Progress" was mentioned only with a sneer. No committee of experts or censors can infallibly distinguish between the diamonds and the paste of literature. Only the sifting of the ages can do this. Therefore, I say that any books which are not obviously immoral may be s...afely placed within reach of the multitude and that the intelligence of the communities which support public libraries by self imposed taxation may be trusted with the selection of the books to be placed on their shelves.
This is only negative testimony to the importance of Mr. Carnegie's work. What shall be said on the positive side? What may not be said of the present and future blessings to the English-speaking world from collections of books placed within the easy reach of nearly 20 per cent, of the population thereof, who had no such resources before?
