What reading level is The Annexation of Texas book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
7, 1844. Houston to Hend. and Van Z., April 29, 1844: Tex. Dipl. Corn, ii., 274.
May I, 1844, the Telegraph and Texas Register of Houston stated, as news from the United States, that Clay desired to have the question of annexation submitted to the people, which meant that he did not wish any action on the subject taken by the Congress then in session. Of course this news arrived some hours at least before it appeared in print, and apparently it could have reached Jones by May 2 or 3. May 3 Jone...s wrote to Miller, secretary of the special legation at Wash- ington, D. C, that he believed the Whigs would have to vote for the treaty, but that postponement would be rejection; and in that case European guaranties of Texan independence could easily be obtained (Miller Pap.). Was this written to promote the ratification of the treaty? The United States Senate had' voted on March 25 to adjourn on May 27, and Jones could not have supposed his letter THE ANNEXATION TREATY IS NEGOTIATED 179 therefore we must march forward with decisive steps." The agree- ment had been signed; nothing could be gained by taking offence; and the only question to consider at present was how to make the best of the situation thus created.*^ would arrive in time to exert any influence, even if he could possibly do so in opposition to Clay.
