What reading level is The Weapon of the Strike book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The place of the Worker who produced those goods only improved if he were able by combination and the strength of his position as a seller of a com- modity required by Employers, e. G. , his skill and useful- ness, to force the market in his favour.
The spirit and desire of the artisan of the fifties was to demand his price by fair arguments and peaceable measures. He would appeal to justice, not to force, but he felt, as much as the Chartists had felt, that he was faced with a hard wall of opp...osition. His task was not to convince men of good-will that his cause was just, but it was to force an opponent by organiza- tion ; by cogent argument and logic ; and by possessing, himself, the power of the purse and so withdrawing his labour if need be to come to terms.
Employers would not, and indeed could not, grant the terms Labour asked — restriction of apprentices and abolition of overtime. They were faced with the hard fact that, owing to free-trade and the increasing competition in other countries, they must produce, and produce in ever-increasing volume, at the lowest possible figure.
