What reading level is The Coming Peace; Oration book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The principles which they proclaimed are entirely opposed to wars of aggression. If all JULY4,1891. 41 men are created, equal, if as individuals they stand upon an even footing, then also must they be equal in their associated capacity as nations, and the poorest and the feeblest nation is equal in all its rights to the richest and the strongest; then must the same code of morals apply to governments in their dealings with each other that applies to men; then must the ignoble rule upon which th...e world has lived so long, that in the affairs of nations might makes right, give place to the law of jus- tice. In the course of more than a century of national life, our country has been true in the main to its pacific character. The pages of our history are indeed blotted with the record of two wars with foreign countries; it is true, also, that our land has been the scene of the greatest civil conflict that the world has ever known. But now for nearly eighty years our relations with the mother country, though subjected to some strain at times, have remained on a friendly footing, and many embarrassing questions between us have been settled by peaceful methods; and the fact that the slave power once engaged us in war with Mexico has long since been forgotten on both sides of the line, in the friendly intercourse of commerce.
