What reading level is The American Citizen book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How reform came. A true reform generally commends itself to the people as fast as they understand it. For they do not want to be taxed uselessly or to fail of good ser- vice. They also, like the boys on the playground, prefer to see justice done, and do not love those who play tricks and cheat them. When, therefore, a few patriotic men are willing to try together to carry any needed reform, they can usually depend upon persuading the people to support them. Especially is this the case when men ...of opposite parties will agree to let their party differences drop, in order to secure some public good.
So in the case of civil service reform. The best men of both parties accordingly agreed that rules ought to be made, such as had been necessary in other great countries, to give the civil service permanence, and to fill vacancies in it by promotion and by fair examinations. Few men would venture to vote against a plan so just. Suitable rules have therefore been made, and commissioners to enforce them have been appointed in some of the States, as well as for the national government, with the intent that the civil service may belong to the people, and not merely to the managers of the party which happens to hold the reins of power.
