What reading level is The Price of Blood book?

In all ages there have been men willing to accept a debased price for blood. The history of Israel contains some notorious examples, culminating in the thirty pieces of silver. But the Jews are not worse sinners than others. It is due to the omission of the historian rather than to any special grace, that the history of other nations does not recount more numerous instances of equally sordid deeds. And the spirit is by no means dead that would greedily drink of ' the water of the well of Bethle...hem that is at the gate . . . The blood of these men which have put their lives in jeopardy '.
There are things that men dare not accept as the price 8 THE PRICE OF BLOOD of blood. If we are offered gold or territory or trade or vainglory, shall we accept these as a worthy equivalent for the sacrifice made ? It was not the trumpet-blast of these things to which our youth responded, and if others lay stress on such gains, shall we not protest against the defilement of the sacrifice ? Which of our sons went to Flanders that we might get gold or land ?
