What reading level is The Colonization of New England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The spirit of the administration of New England is shown by the character of its legislation. Restrictions were put upon trade by an act which prohibited dealers from trading outside of their own towns; his majesty s revenues were cared for by additional imposts and excise duties; the militia of the colonies was brought under the new com- mander-in-chief. All local laws were wiped off the statute books of the towns by an act which declared that no laws or orders were to have effect other than t...hose issued by the governor and Council ; the freedom of movement of the people was restricted by an order that no one might move out of the country excepting by license from the governor. Having thus remorselessly reduced the people almost to a position of serfdom, the process was perfected by savage attacks upon land titles. The records disclose a number of instances of gross injustice perpetrated under the claim that the land could not be legally held by its owners except by patent from the new government.
