What reading level is A Chronicle of Friendships book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Life is so full of interest, so pregnant with thoughts, opinions, and flashes of character, that one can chronicle a few of the im- pressions it evokes. The account of Stanley's inter- view with King Leopold is profoundly interesting.
Unlike Gladstone, King Leopold saw that Stanley was no ordinary man. He reaHsed at once the stupendous wealth of the newly-explored Congo country. He induced Stanley to found the Congo State. Thus has it come about to-day that the world looks on aghast at the fear...ful cruelties practised by the Belgians in those parts which Stanley discovered, offered, and did all he could to give to England; which even yet may be compelled to intervene, if only for the honour of humanity.
By England's callousness and puny statesmanship, then, we lost the whole of the present Congo Free State and the monopoly of the Congo Railway, now one of the most profitable in the world. We gave to Germany what has now become German East Africa, all territory explored and opened up to commerce by British explorers, by Livingstone, Burton, Speke, CHRONICLE OF FRIENDSHIPS 101 and Stanley!
