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


Such, then, would have been the out- come of the contest in the sixties for the preservation of the Federal Union. The immediate result would have been a new republic, the motive of whose creation was the perpetuation of negro slavery, as an economic institution of divine ordination, and of such importance to the welfare of 48 MARGIN OF SAFETY that section of America in which it had been planted that every other considera- tion was secondary to it.
Second only in importance to this dic- tum as
...to negro slavery was the doctrine that any sovereign state preserved the right to withdraw from association with other states at any time according to its own will.
To-day, after fifty years, we can see the only superstructure that could have been erected on a foundation of slavery and disunion. In everything pertaining to material welfare the rest of the world has made tremendous strides during this period. But the new republic has been out of tune with the other nations of the earth. Cotton, and rice and sugar and slaves have continued to be produced; de- velopment of any white self-respecting middle class has been impossible; while the white population has decreased, the blacks have multiplied to an amazing de- gree; many of the more energetic and in- telligent among them have from time to time escaped across the border to the free states, from whence they have not failed to foment discord among their fellows left behind.
