What reading level is The World Peril Americas Interest in the War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But there is coming to us, exactly as there came to Great Britain after she had gone to war to avenge the violation of treaty right in Belgium, the realiza- tion that together with this cause for action there was another — less ostensibly international and humanitarian, but none the less vital — the danger from the enormous power of Germany; the need of the restoration of the balance of power in Europe. At first this phase of the problem was little discussed in England, but more and more it cam...e to the front. Finally in an editorial published March 8, 1915, the 82 BALANCE OF POWER 83 London Times came out with the frank state- ment that England had not gone to war for Bel- gian neutrality but to restore the balance of power threatened by Germany. That this is an overemphasis is very probable, but it does show that, in the minds of at least some of the leaders of English political thought, this cause for action had assumed first place. Nor has this feeling lessened as time goes on until now probably the main motive in the fighting is the desire, on the part of the Allies, to put an end to the over- weening pretensions of Germany to world domi- nation and to restore the balance of power.
