What reading level is A History And Defense of African Slavery book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But want of principle is even more import- ant than lack of qualification. If your over- seer should ever once betray you, or grossly 128 A HISTORY AND DEFENSE deceive you, trust liini no further; he will continually do so as long as you keep him, and the quicker you get rid of him the better. If he is a rascal, it is vain for you to try to make an honest man of him ; it will come as natural for him to deceive you, as it is for a wolf to catch a sheep : he w^ill promise to do so no more, and th...e very first opportunity he has, he will do the same thing over again, ac- cording to his nature. I would not advise the discharging of an overseer for every little vice or error, if he would suit otherwise ; for, of course, we must make the necessary allowance for the frailties of human nature, and put up with some faults and failings, wdiere they do not amount to anything very injurious; but in the case of palpable want of qualification, or wailful de- ception, set them adrift Avithout ceremony : it is much better to have no overseer, than to have one who w^ould ruin vou, and breed dis- afiection among your negroes.
