What reading level is A Letter to the Hon Henry Clay On the Annexation of Texas to the United States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The principles of Mr. Jeffer- son in relation to it found a wide response. The doctrine, that slavery is a good, if spread by the seizure of Texas, will work a moral revolution, the most disastrous which can befal the South. It will paralyze every effort for escape from this enormous evil. A deadly sophistry will weigh on men's consciences and hearts, until terrible convulsions, God's just judgments, will hasten the deliverance which human justice and benevolence were bound to ac- complish.
IV.... I now proceed to another important argument against the annexation of Texas to our country, the argument drawn from the bearings of the measure on our National Union. Next to liberty, union is our great political interest, and this cannot but be loosened, it may be dissolved, by the proposed extention of our territory. I will not say 48 that every extension must be pernicious, that our gov- ernment cannot hold together even our present confed- eracy, that the central heart cannot send its influences to the remote states which are to spring up within our present borders.
