What reading level is A Letter to An American Friend book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Most of all, perhaps, were you influenced by the gradual realisation that the ugly monster which had been set loose in Central Europe was a beast with whom moral considerations did not count. The Prussian military autocracy could not be trusted to keep faith with anybody. Lying, trickery, dev- ilish intrigue were its most ordinary weapons, to be used without scruple against friend and foe alike. The plighted word meant nothing except as a move in the game ; it could be repudiated at any moment ...when it paid to do so, as your diplo- matists and statesmen in their dealings with Ger- many have had to learn over and over again to their cost.
But now that you are with us heart and soul in resistance to the greatest organised evil where- with human society at large has ever been men- aced, let us ask whether there are not still more fundamental issues involved than any of the fore- going, though indissolubly bound up with them. It is only gradually that we ourselves have come to recognise clearly what these are; once up against the issues you have been quicker to en- visage them than we.
