What reading level is Slavery in the United States Its Evils Alleviations And Remedies volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

We may take the case of Maryland, to explain what is very likely to be the progress of events. The whole number of slaves in Maryland, in 1830, was 102, 294. In 1840, it was 89, 737. In 1850, it was 89, 800. Thus, through the agency of causes now at work, during the last twenty years, there has been an actual falling off, in the slave population, of 12, 494. In the mean time, the population of the State has increased 135, 466, amount- ing by the census of 1850, to 582, 506. Thus, while the numb...er of slaves is diminishing, the white population is steadily increasing, and through this increasing disproportion between the two races, slavery is every day coming more and more under control. Besides, as is evident from the circumstance that so many are set free, there are large num- bers of slaveholders disinclined to hold slave property, and equally disinclined to sell their slaves. Of these, some would be glad to liber- ate their slaves at once ; and many more, unwilling to leave them in bondage, would liberate them at death, could they have any assurance that their condition would be changed for the better.
