What reading level is The Arts of Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" The great merchant was to begin by sweeping out the store. The weakling was the proper candi- date for college, whence a living might be assured for him in the church or other "learned profession. " A college education was thought a handicap against " practical " achievement. This superstition is one of the husks the world has thrown off. The free play of competition has entered all the pro- fessions, and all are the better for it. The theological seminary can no longer send out spiritless so...uls to inspire spirituality, nor the medical colleges weak characters to tell men Competition how to get strong. Competition demands Cho?ce d of choice of tools. A man should first know Tools to what " calling " he is called, by nature, by his own nature. We need clay for bricks, oak for a ship's keel, willow for baskets, cast iron for stoves, wrought iron for shovels, the finest steel of finest temper for edge tools. There are men of like materials. Competi- tion not that for money, but that of qual- ities is the test of the modern world.
