What reading level is The Condition of the South And the Duty of the North book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Lincoln, they profess to feel sure of negotiation, and their Confederacy. They believe a Democrat will be elected. In Mr. Lin- coln's re-election they see only subjugation, annihilation — for the war must then continue, and continuance is their failure and ruin.
In military affairs it is an excellent rule never to do what the enemy desires : is it not equally true in politics ?
Certain it is that the only remaining hope of the South lies in Mr. Lincoln's defeat.
Now I am not enough of a politic...ian to know whether the election of a Democrat can result as favorably to the South as it anticipates. The wish alone may be the pa- rent of their belief But I assured all who expressed that belief, that the North, as a mass, is as united as the South ; that no Democrat could be elected on a peace platform ; and that any president who would inaugurate any measure leading to peace on the basis of Southern independence would be promptly hung, by loyal acclama- tion, to the lamp-post in fi'ont of his own presidential mansion.
