What reading level is Pioneer Work for Women book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This horrible fact of immorality has weighed upon me fear- fully since I came to London, for I believe in no city in the world does it show itself so publicly as it does here. In Paris it is legalised and hidden, and is recognised and profitable as a branch of the Government !
In the United States it is not so old and widespread (written in 1850) ; but here in London it has been let alone, 146 Pioneer Work has taken an unrestrained course, exists to a fearful extent, and shows itself conspicuou...sly in its lowest form. At all hours of the night I see groups of our poor wretched sisters, standing at every corner of the streets, decked out in their best, which best is generally a faded shawl and even tattered dress, seeking their wretched living ; and many aching hearts I have seen looking through the thin, hungry features. But I will not pain you further ; you know the general fact, though you have never had it pressed home to you in a thousand ways, as I have. My great dream is of a grand moral reform society, a wide movement of women in this matter ; the remedy to be sought in every sphere of life — radical action — not the foolish application of plasters, that has hitherto been the work of the so-called " moral reform " societies ; we must leave the present castaway, but redeem the rising generation.
