What reading level is A Compendious History of American Methodism book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He was repeatedly elected to the Senate of New Hampshire and to Congress, yet was always personally averse to taking office ; and though he spoke but seldom on political subjects, the soundness of his judgment, and the known purity of his life, gave much weight to his opinions. In the early days of his ministry he endured almost incredible fatigue and hardship in carrying the glad tidings of the Gospel to remote settlements, often swimming rivers on horseback, and preaching in his clothes satur...ated with w^ater, till he broke down a naturally robust constitution and laid the foun- dation of disease, which affected him more or less during his after life. As a preacher, he possessed more than ordinary talents; his clear understanding, combined with quick sensi- bilities and a vivid imagination, could not but render him eloquent on the themes of religion. He was partial to the benigner topics of the Gospel, and often would his congrega- tions and himself melt into tears under the inspiration of his subjects.
