What reading level is The North American Review volume 149 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


This is the hopelessness of trades-unions and strikes, so far as any settlement of the labor question is concerned. It is like leveeing a river subject to flood. Every levee that is raised requires constant watching, and every new levee increases the pressure on all. Nay, the illustration is hardly strong enough. For the rise of the water also increases the swiftness of the cur rent that carries it off. But the restrictions with which trades- unions keep each their own little territory from inu
...ndation by unemployed labor do not add to the facility with which that labor finds employment.
Am I, then, opposed to strikes ? My answer would be, No ! A strike is the necessary weapon of the trades-union, and without it the trades-union would be of as little effect as a prohibitory act without a penal clause. I believe, as I have never neglected an oppor tunity of telling workingmen, that trades-unions can accomplish nothing large and permanent, and that the method of raising wages by strikes is the method of main strength and stupidity.
