What reading level is The Germans book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the old monarchies, peoples resemble their kings ; in democratic societies, the multitude reflects its mandatories.
Such a spirit of liberty does not involve indiffer- ence to truth, still less the abdication of personal convictions ; it is rather the respect of adversaries, and implies even the highest faith in the intrinsic power of truth. That which succeeds only through human skill is always ephemeral : whatever is sup- ported only by violent passions is always doomed to unforeseen react...ions ; but that which is based upon conscience and truth, like them is immutable.
Still, I cannot refrain from saying the reigu of liberty, understood in that light, will never be pos- sible in France or anywhere else without religion, and Catholicism is the only form of religion likely to exercise its full influence over individuals.
In a country indifferent to religious matters, sec- tarians have a fine game : boisterous and restless, they will easily succeed in oppressing inert and thought- less masses, alive only to their own interests.
