What reading level is William Rathbone: a Memoir book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The order in which the several branches of his work have been described has been as a rule \ 128 WILLIAM RATHBONE chap.
the order in which they were undertaken. It was natural that when he first began work upon a new subject it should occupy for a time the forefront of his thoughts, and then, when the limits of what he could hope to do in it made themselves plain, it should fall into the background and become more or less a matter of routine.
One trivial personal experiment in "charity organisa...tion" belongs properly to this time. When William Rathbone first entered his father's office he found that the numbers of applicants for charity who called there was a serious nuisance and impedi- ment to the business. His father, he says, " held very sound opinions on the subject of the evil done to character by relief given without sunicient know- ledge," but being very tender-hearted, he could seldom resist sweetening his lectures on the duty of self-reliance by a shilling or half-a-crown. At his son's suggestion he consented to refer all applicants to the office of a local relief society, with instruc- tions to make strict inquiries and to give sub- stantial help when desirable.
