What reading level is Why Study Latin And Greek the Classics a Preparation for a Professional And Bus book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


We may here remark that the very fact of Latin and Greek being being dead languages is an additional argu- ment in favor of their training power. The meaning of the words is not constantly changing as in modern tongues; the mode of thought is so far removed from our own that 10 all guessing at the meaning is precluded. The translation, the parsing, the explanation of idioms, the whole construc- tion, requires hard intellectual work and consequently must prove an excellent mental training.
