What reading level is The Makers of Canada volume 5 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the light of these principles let us notice some of the claims of the several powers which at one time or other possessed an interest in Oregon.
Discovery (which may be grouped with settle- ment in this brief resumd) in itself does not convey a perfect title in international law. It is the first 159 SIR JAMES DOUGLAS step to a title an "inchoate act of sovereignty'*; but it must be followed by possession and settle- ment; and the settlement must be continuous and permanent. If occupation lap...ses for any reasonable length of time, the title lapses with it. As to the discovery of much of the north-west coast, Spain might undoubtedly claim that honour; and the establishment of Nootka was designed to confer the added right of possession and occupation. But it was never acknowledged that this single settle- ment could hold so vast a region, or that the voy- ages of Cook and others might not also rank as voyages of discovery. The convention of Nootka gave to England in 1790 equality with Spain in north-western America.
