What reading level is United States From the Landing of Columbus to the Signing of the ..., volume 3 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

That their action was legal, and that the South could get back its fugitives in no other way, were facts which had no effect in reconciling the North to the edict; there were many cases of resistance and rescue in Bos- ton and elsewhere; and Webster was sedulous in prosecut- ing them, while the Attorney-General, Crittenden, declared the act to be constitutional. There is no question that the South and the administration were in the right in enforcing the law, since it existed; and if it ought n...ot to have existed, why did not the North prevent it in Congress? If slavery were to be tolerated at aU, then fugitive slaves were like runaway cattle, and honest folk were bound to return them to their owners. One of the plainest lessons of the situation was, that the people were no longer represented by Con- fess. But that was the people's fault. Webster arraigned dteward for ventming to set private conscience above law; a New York Whig convention split, some adhering to Fill- more and Webster, with the title of "silver-grays," the others to Seward.
