What reading level is The Literature of the Peace Movement book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

All religious men should help extend their influence, and here they are commended to students of the movement at this hour. No one has more searchingly exposed the weakness and absurdity of the frequent claim that great armaments tend to preserve the peace, and no one has pointed out with greater power the constant and dangerous menace, especially to a re- public, of a large professional military class. Mr. Jefferson's article, " The Delusion of Militarism, " in the March number of the Atlantic... Monthly, since reprinted in pamphlet form, well illustrates his pungency and power.
We must never forget the religious origin of the peace move- ment. As a distinctly organized movement it began here in America, and began with Christian men. The first peace society in the world was the New York Peace Society, founded in the summer of 1815 by David Low Dodge, and membership in the Christian Church was a condition of membership in that first peace society. We should doubtless all agree in account- ing this an unwise condition, but it is indicative of the sacred character which those men attached to their cause.
