What reading level is The Complete Works of Henry George volume 5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

So that whereas, in early stages, along with the free- dom of each man, there went joint ownership of the soil by the body of men ; and whereas, during the long periods of that militant activity by which small communities were consolidated into great ones, there simultaneously resulted loss of individual freedom and loss of participation in landownership ; there has, with the decline of militancy and the growth of industrialism, been a reacquire- ment of individual freedom and a reacquirement o...f such partici- pation in landownership as is implied by a share in appointing the body by which the land is now held. And the implication is that the members of the community, habitually exercising as they do, through their representatives, the power of alienating and using as they think well, any portion of the land, may equitably appropriate and use, if they think fit, all portions of the land. But since equity and daily custom alike imply that existing holders of particu- lar portions of land may not be dispossessed without giving them in return its fairly estimated value, it is also implied that the wholesale resumption of the land by the community can be justly effected only by wholesale purchase of it.
