What reading level is The New Nation; a Sketch of the Social, Political, And Economic Conditions And Prospects of the Australian Commonwealth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
However slight the tie is that binds Australia to England, yet, so long as that tie subsists, Australia must be provincial ; so long as that tie subsists, the intellect, the wealth, the beauty of Australia, will tend to flow to London, and stay there. Admirable in intention as are the colonial scholarships of Mr. Rhodes, and great as seems the ability of the Commissioner in whose hands their arrangement has been placed, it is at least doubtful whether their result will not be an increase of the... centripetal tendency which is the necessary consequence of the imperial connexion.
If Australia could ill spare the legions of her bravest and most daring sons who left her shores for South Africa, from which they will in so many cases never return, she can spare still less the most intelligent of her sons who will henceforward be drawn from her struggling universities to swell the crowded halls of the ancient centres of learning. If the scholarships could be awarded at the close of the career at a colonial university, and only awarded on condition of partial refund of the monies unless the successful scholar returned to his country on the completion of his course, good and not evil might come from the character- istic bequest.
