What reading level is The Subterranean Brotherhood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Complaints wereconstantly made, but the holes were never mended, and no means weretaken to kill the flies. Food sometimes was placed on the tables hoursbefore the men sat down to their meals, and the flies, not having thesame delicacy of appetite as the men, feasted freely in the meanwhile. There was also frequent protest against the bits of loose enamel in thebowls; many of these were made direct to the doctor; but he did nothing. If a man whose digestion had given way called on him for help, ...a dose ofsalts was the only reply, and several deaths, while I was there, unquestionably had their beginning in this neglect. Upon the whole, contentment with starvation was the most prudent policy in AtlantaPenitentiary.
I am not a sybarite or an epicure. For fifteen years before I was sentto prison I lived on the hardest and most Spartan diet, eating as littlefood as possible and that of the simplest kind. Wheat, milk, a few greenvegetables, and fruit made my menus. I was therefore better fortifiedagainst hardships than the majority of prisoners; I could hold outagainst starvation longer; but against the poison of rotten or bad foodI had no protection.
