What reading level is The Overland Monthly 6 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He lifted himself to the great occasion in a spirit of conciliation. He did not stop to picture the direful consequences of a failure to settle the question by a divis- ion upon the line of the Missouri Compro- mise. We had lived prosperously and peace- fully upon that line. Any sacrifice which could be made. North or South, to maintain that condition, he regarded glorious as well as just. The Union was permanent. It had been necessary after the Revolution to yield many prejudices, and much Sta...te policy, in order to secure independence with union.
He recognized the hand of Providence in helping our ancestors in that trying era. He quoted from Washington, who said : **But for Providence, we could not have accomplished this thing." He spoke as if the muse of his- tory were listening to him. The writer well remembers that speech, and the excessive emotion which it produced. The peroration still rings as a part of the memory of that critical time : " Sir, I wish to God it Was in my power to preserve this Union by recognizing and agreeing to give up every conscientious and other opinion." Then turning to the Sena- tors from the South.
