What reading level is Youth And Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If we could discern them, we should know the distinction of our age. Definite epochs of the past we distinguish and celebrate because they contained the germs of ideas or the roots of institutions that still survive among us, or customs and habits of thought that flourished in them with great brilliancy bu^ have now utterly passed away. Now these beginnings are quite too subtle for us to see in our contempo- rary life, and there are so many brilliancies that it is impossible to pick out with an...y definiteness the things which have power to project themselves into the future, and cast a broad trail of light back to our age. Most of those very things that seem to us imperishable will be the ones to fade, — fade, indeed, so gradually that they will not even be missed. It is this gradual disappearance that gives the most thorough oblivion. History re- members only the brilliant failures and the bril- liant successes.
We are fond of calling this an age of transition, but if we trace history back we find that practically every age — at least for many centuries — has 221 YOUTH AND LIFE been an age of transition.
