What reading level is Total Abstinence book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Others who are not furnished with the argument of so subtle a master, tell somewhat the same story, but in more lively expression of sentiment. They have dozens of old songs and old sayings of common acceptation to fall back upon : ' Life is chequered o'er with woe, ' Bid the ruddy bumper flow, ' Wine's the soul of man below. ' Very much below, I imagine, in some cases. But this is the way in which the excuse is permitted to run.
I confess, recalling my own experience, I did not get over this i...dea of the recreative enjoyment until I had got somewhat more knowledge than comes even from scientific work. At last it occurred to me to see, what I might have seen at any time if I had looked, that men who do not take alcohol can and do enjoy themselves just as much as men do who take it ; that abstainers are as merry at festivals as other men are ; that their merriment, quite as keen, is chastened, less sensual, and may be more brilliant, while it is not DIFFICULTIES, MENTAL AND SOCIAL. 145 followed by the dangerous and terrible reaction of de- pression.
