What reading level is The Duties And Dignities of American Freemen book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Its expenses may be set down to the bankrupt end of the Union. It cost $100, 000, 000.
* A report from Mr. L. Cheevea, in Congress at that time from South Carolina. Fi. XeB one haJf the expenses of the navy for the support of gun-boats.
40 But let us have the figures. For the year 1311, the ordi- nary expenses of the government were, for military and naval establishments, §4, 298, 394. Multiply this by 3, — the number of years of the war, * — and you have, as the amount of ordinary expenses in
...these departments for three years, $12, 895, 182. But the expenses were |>85, 174, 070, which leaves, after deducting ordinary ex- penses, 72, 278, 888 as the cost the North paid for the war, in the military and naval department alone. It may be said that the South paid part of these expenses ; but pau])ers never pay any thing, and, till the products of the South are greater than her consumption, she must not talk of paying expenses of government.
Here let me add the expenses up to 1810, say 89, 166, 700 the sum accruing from the military expenditures during the war, and you have the sum of $161, 445, 588 which the North paid for the South to 1815.
