What reading level is The War for the World book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There Samuel Smiles was right. But Mr. Morel has cleared an area larger than France and Germany from super-slavery; he has restored some of the rights both native and international that were guaranteed by the Berlin Congress. This is a success which puts him on a par with a great soldier or a great politician. But a great soldier when he comes home is ffited by the nation, ennobled by the sovereign, and pre- sented by Parliament with a purse of gold. And a great politician receives place and po...wer and salary. Mr. Mord has received neither gold nor a title. But if he has not made money he has made history. And if he has not achieved a Knighthood, he has achieved something finer and rarer — he has been a knight — a knight without fear Digitized by VjOOQIC MR. MOREL AND THE CONGO 285 or reproach. If we are to define Mr. Morel as a politician, we shall call him, as Sir Harry Johnston has so justly called him, "a great Imperialist.'' Just as politician has been degraded to mean a party politician, instead of a man who serves the public good, so Imperialist has been degraded to mean a man who extends the area of the Empire.
