What reading level is The Life of James Madison book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was to be no tax- ation of exports, and trade and navigation acts could be passed by a majority vote in Congress. Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina cared primarily for slaves, for in them they thought their wealth lay, and they wished to increase it by further importations. Their attachment to slavery was a stronger feeling than was their opposition to navigation acts. The desire for navigation acts was, on the other hand, very strong in New England, and several delegates from th...at section declared the Union was not desirable to them unless they coiild have national legislation to foster their com- merce. The selfish cupidity of this section thus allied itself with the perverted morality of South Carolina, Georgia and North CaroHna, and the coalition probably saved the Constitution from rejection.
* Gilpin, II, 1427. t Id., II, 1451- t Id., II, 1430.
CHAPTER XIV THE GREAT CONVENTION. II.
A NUMBER of the lesser provisions of the Constitution were incorporated on Madison's motion.
