What reading level is A Preface to Politics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That is why great agitators shouldnot accept office. Men like Debs understand that. Their business is tomake social demands so concrete and pressing that statesmen are forced todeal with them. Agitators who accept government positions are adisappointment to their followers. They can no longer be severelypartisan. They have to look at affairs nationally. Now the agitator andthe statesman are both needed. But they have different functions, and itis unjust to damn one because he hasn't the virtues... of the other. The statesman to-day needs a large equipment. The man who comes forwardto shape a country's policy has truly no end of things to consider. Hemust be aware of the condition of the people: no statesman must fall intothe sincere but thoroughly upper class blunder that President Taftcommitted when he advised a three months' vacation. Realizing how men andwomen feel at all levels and at different places, he must speak theirdiscontent and project their hopes. Through this he will get power.
