What reading level is The Purification And Reconstruction of the American Union An Oration Delivered book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
R"^v The malign influence of the Demagogue Has already fixed a stigma on Republican institutions, and raised a doubt whether the Government of the people for the people and by the people is not a delusion and a sham. Political machination and artifice have installed corrupt and incompetent men in office, caused the enactment of unjust laws, and waste of public money.
^ The roll of our Presidents is searched in vain for the name of Webster or Clay, of Douglas or Preston, of Choate or Everett, th...ose intellectual giants, whose eloquence, patriotism, and states- manship, are the rich heritage of the country.
In place of our foremost men appear the names of accidental heroes and political schemers.
16 Senatorial dignity has even descended to the illiterate adventurer, the brazen trickster, and the pliant tool of faction. In the Representative Hall, at Washington, we blush to see the gradu- ates of the bar-room, the faro-bank, and the prize- ring.
Men of bad repute, sullied character, and feeble intellect, are inaugurated Governors ; State Legis- lators reek with venality, ignorance, and dishonor; municipal governments are controlled by adroit sharpers, who form cc rings " to plunder the ex- chequer, and burden the community with onerous taxes.
