What reading level is Patriotism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' Great God ! Have they not needed us all through our lives ?
The war will soon be finished — very soon, as history reckons. Shall we continue to be patriotic when it is over ? Our forefathers did not, after the Hundred Years' War, or after the Civil War, or after the wars of the eighteenth century, or after Waterloo. We have not indeed yet shaken off all the degradation into which Britain sank after Napoleon was done with.
Shall we over-ride the coming reaction, and love our country when the w...ar is over ? Or shall we justify the philosophy of those who say that war is necessary because nothing else can purge us from the greater horrors of our unchastened wickedness in peace, because nothing else can make us loyal ?
That will depend largely upon the spirit of those whose work it is to inform the minds and enlighten the con- 14 PATRIOTISM -■ '••■••'* "'• sciences of the people, upon statesmen and orators, journalists and authors, teachers and preachers — and still more upon the common spirit of all those quiet folk who care about the things that are unseen, upon their prayer, their talk, and the abounding influence of their lives.
