What reading level is Secession And Its Causes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They selected for their Presidential candidate Mr. John C. Fremont, most reputably known in the country as an ofiicer of the army, but without any^political ante- cedents. It was thought judicious not to nominate a politician too closely identified with the Anti-slavery movement, lest the possible consequences might alarm the "sober second thought" of the North. Thus accoutred, the Eepublican party went to the polls, November, 1856, and brought off a vote of l, 33i, 553. They were defeated by t...he Democratic party, which was now the only link between North and South ; but the Eepublican leaders felt quite sanguine that, w^ith the tactics their experi- ence would suggest, they would carry off the Presidential prize in 1860. It was thus that the moral question as to the sin of slavery, borrowed from England by our Abolitionists, and kept alive by their address till the North was thoroughly infected by it, was, at last, converted into a political question and made a party issue.
It is hardly necessary to hint to a veteran like your Lord- ship, that the Eepublican politicians had not the remotest idea of interfering with slavery, if they could help it ; but they, doubtless, felt a dread lest the Northern masses, who had con- scientiously imbibed the Anti-slavery poison, might force them reluctantly to carry their unconstitutional theories into legisla LKTTEE TO LORD PALMEESTON.
