What reading level is A Present Peril book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The nations are not so much concerned about a government's form as about its existence. All- they demand is an authority which will protect persons and property, preserve peace and order, and fulfill international obligations. For this reason the right of revolution is recognized; but a crime committed in an attempt to destroy all govern- ment strikes at the root of all social institutions, and is therefore directed not against a particular government, but against civilized society itself. The ...crime of the anarchist, proceeding from a revolt against society and being directed at the law which holds society together, is essentially the act of the common criminal, and should be treated as such. For this reason I submit that not only should the anarchist who assassinates a ruler be extraditable, but anarchistic conspiracies here should be suppressed and punished regardless of the locality of the contemplated assassination.
In the next place, I submit that the constitutional guarantee of "the freedom of speech" does not stand in the way of sujipressing the pernicious propaganda of anarchism.
