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

1 In a short sentence, it is comparatively easy to avoid obscurity, weakness, and clumsiness, and to keep one point of view ; in a long sentence, it is comparatively easy to show the relation with the context In unbroken succession, short sentences distract or confuse the reader, long sentences fatigue him. A skil- ful writer alternates long with short, using the former, for the most part, to unfold his thought, the latter to enforce it. This is what Burke does in a passage quoted for another p...urpose. 2 After putting a strain upon the reader's attention by a long sentence, a skilful writer relaxes it by a short one. This is what Daniel Webster does in the following passage : — « Venerable men 1 you have come down to us from a former generation. Heaven has bounteously lengthened out your lives, that you might behold this joyous day. , You are now where you stood fifty years ago, this very hour, with your brothers and your neighbors, shoulder to shoulder, in the strife for your country.
