What reading level is Twenty Unsettled Miles in the Northeast Boundary volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Under this convention, Hon. W. F. King, of Ottawa, Canada, was appointed commissioner on the part of Great Britain, and the writer of this paper represented the United States. The commissioners were immediately confronted with the fact that they were expected to mark a boundary line which really did not exist and never had existed : but by a liberal interpretation of that part of the convention in which it was agreed that they were "to place buoys or fix such other boundary marks as they may de...termine to be neces- sary, " they found a basis on which to proceed to the con- sideration of the question. Evidently the just and fail- principle according to which the boundary might be drawn, was that which, as far as was practicable, left equal water- areas on both sides. There was no other solution of the problem clearly indicated by the physics of the estuary or the topography of the shores. Furthermore, there is a precedent for adopting this principle, in the treaty of 1846, in which the extension of the boundary from the point of intersection of the forty-ninth parallel of north latitude with the middle" of the channel between Vancouver Island and the Continent, to the Pacific Ocean, is along the middle of the Strait of Fuca.
