To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Defoe's book is a very rare work, so rare, indeed, that its very existence has been doubted, and it has been even asserted positively that no such book was ever written ; but the assertion is wrong. It has been said, too, that Franklin had in mind, when he wrote this part of his Autobi- ography, Defoe's Complete English Tradesman, and that he was then thinking of this work ; but it was not so. The great printer in his younger days had handled too much type to make a mistake in the title of a bo...ok. Eight or nine years before his birth An Essay upon Projects was published in London, written by the same author who afterward wrote that prose epic Robinson Crusoe, which charmed us all so much in our boyhood. In the introduction to the Essay the author terms the age in which he wrote " the project- ing age, " and in the body of the work he refers to many schemes which have since crystallized into practical projects, and are now con- sidered necessary institutions of the present age. Besides other subjects he refers to Banks, Highways, Assurances, Pension Offices or Savings Banks, Friendly Societies, and Academies, all which to-day are recognized as actual problems in business life.
