What reading level is The Pro Slavery Argument As Maintained By the Most Distinguished Writers of the book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I do not un- l/dervalue the importance of other articles of commerce, but no calamity could befall the world at all comparable to the sud- den loss of two millions of bales of cotton annually. From the deserts of Africa to the Siberian wilds — from Greenland to the Chinese wall, — there is not a spot of earth but would feel the sensation. The factories of Europe would fall with a con- cussion that would shake down castles, palaces, and even thrones; while the "purse-proud, elbowing insolence" o...f our Northern monopolist would soon disappear forever under the smooth speech of the pedlar, scourging our frontiei-s for a live- lihood, or the bluff vulgarity of the South Sea whaler, follow- ing the harpoon amid storms and shoals. Doubtless the abo- litionists think we could grow cotton without slaves, or that at worst the reduction of the crop would be moderate and tepiporary. Such gross delusions show how j^i'ofoundly igno- rant they are of our condition here.
You declare that " the character of the people of the South has long been that of hardened injidch, who fear not God, and have no regard for religion.
