What reading level is The Creed of the Old South 1865-1915 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The serenadeis matched by the battle-cry. The fight between two cock-pheasants forthe love of a hen-pheasant is war in its last analysis, in its primalmanifestation. Selfish hatred is at the bottom of it. It is thehell-fire to which we owe the heat that is necessary to some of thenoblest as to some of the vilest manifestations of human nature. Righteous indignation, sense of injustice, sympathy with the oppressed, consecration to country, fine words all, fine things, but so many of themen who r...epresent these fine things perish. It wrings the heart at adistance of more than thirty years to think of those who have fallen, and love still maintains passionately that they were the best. At anyrate, they were among the best, and both sides are feeling the loss tothis day, not only in the men themselves, but in the sons that shouldhave been born to them.
Any two wars, then, will yield a sufficient number of resemblances, inkilled, wounded, and missing, in the elemental matter of hatred, or, ifyou choose to give it a milder name, rivalry.
