What reading level is The Man Roosevelt : a Portrait Sketch book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I admit all that you say of his personal worth. He has been in my mother's parlor, and invited to sit down there. I don't know that I should have had any feeling about the President's asking him to a lunch or dinner by themselves. But to invite him to the table with ladies — that is what no Southerner can brook!" But last and best, note this: In the fall of 1903 there was a gathering of bishops and clergy of the Protestant Episcopal ministry in Wash- ington to celebrate an important event in th...e history of the diocese. The President had con- sented to take part in the ceremonies, and in his turn gave a reception at the White House to the visiting delegates. He had no share in 230 SUBTLE DISTINCTIONS making out the list of invitations, but left all such details to the managers of the affair, who were largely Southern clergymen. Among those who responded were a negro archdeacon from North Carolina, with his wife, and the negro rector of a flourishing parish in Mary- land. All met on an outwardly equal footing under the President's roof; all joined in par- taking of the refreshments spread for them, eating from the same set of plates and drinking from the same set of glasses, some sitting and some standing, but with no social or race lines apparently drawn between any classes in the assemblage.
