What reading level is Our Democracy, Its Origins And Its Tasks book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

In Greece the philosopher Plato described an ideal city in which rulers would be selected because of their wisdom. Every one should do the work for which he was best fitted, whether it were that of the brave soldier to defend the city, or that of the farmer and laborer to provide food. Women, too, should be educated as well as men and should be given a chance to do whatever they were able to do. In this way harmony and order would prevail. People would be united in the service of the city. It w...as not the modern ideal of a democratic city, for Plato did not believe in education for all. Neither did he think that the great majority of common people should have anything to do with the government. Nevertheless it was a picture which ex- ercised a tremendous influence over the minds of men and is still full of suggestion for those who are hoping and planning for a better future.
Sir Thomas More lived in the time of Henry VII and Henry VIII, when the ' ' new learning," as it was called, was filling the minds of a few with great enthusi- asm.
