What reading level is Side Lights book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Pockets four hundred and ninety pounds for himself, and the noble patron's revenge is satisfied. There is a true tale ofrogues and a fool--a tale to make one brood and brood until the senseof fun passes into black melancholy. Five hundred men worked for sixtyhours per week before that money was earned--and think of the valuereceived for the whole sum when it was spent! Truly the parasite'sexertions are lucrative to himself!
As for the market-price of book-learning or clerkly skill, it is notwor...th so much as naming. The clerk was held to be a wondrous person intimes when the "neck-verse" would save a man from the gallows; but"clerk" has far altered its meaning, and the modern being of that nameis in sorrowful case. So contemptibly cheap are his poor services thathe in person is not looked upon as a man, but rather as a lump of rawmaterial which is at present on sale in a glutted market. All thewalks of life wherein men proceed as though they belonged to theleisured class are becoming no fit places for self-respecting people.
