What reading level is The Fee System in the United States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As the interior of the colonies developed, it is but natural that means of transportation should become of increasing im- portance. The attention of the colonial legislative bodies came to be directed more and more to ferries, toll-bridges, toll-roads, and other transportation facilities.* At first the permission to build them and levy toll for their use, was granted by special acts. 4 In some colonies, however, these rights were granted by the governors. The regulation of the amount of fees to... be charged was, as a rule, left to the legislative council, which ex- ercised this right very frequently. But in spite of the best regulation, and in spite of the heavy penalties imposed for vio- lations, unjust and discriminating tolls continued to be col- lected by the various ferry-men and toll-gatherers. Complaints were also made that the judges, sheriffs, clerks, and other fee collecting officers, connected with the courts, charged illegal and extortionate amounts for their services.
The legislative bodies made numerous attempts to prevent these abuses.
