What reading level is The Transition in Virginia From Colony to Commonwealth book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Lord North's conciliatory proposition was also dis- posed of in short order. At the suggestion of North, the House of Commons had proposed, February 27, 1775, that when any colony agreed to contribute to the common de- ^ fence and to make provision for the support of the civil government and the administration of justice in the colony, it would then be proper for the crown and Parliament to forbear levying any duties or taxes on such colony, except such duties as might be expedient for the regu...lation of com- merce.^ The reply of the House of Burgesses to this proposal was written by Jefferson and was the last statement of its theory of the relation of the colonial legislature to the King and Parliament. The House of Burgesses, it was declared, can- not accept the terms of the conciliatory proposition. In the first place, the claim of Parliament to interfere in the provisions for the support of our civil government is novel.
Proof of this is found in the passage of an act of 1680. In that year a measure for raising revenue was brought over by the governor.
