What reading level is A View of the Art of Colonization With Present Reference to the British Empire book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
279 " MK. MOTHERCOUNTRY, OF THE COLONIAL OFFICE.
" IN preceding chapters we have endeavoured to show, that that constant reference to the authorities in England, which some persons call " responsibility to the mother-country, " is by no means necessary to insure the maintenance of a bene- ficial colonial connexion. It is not necessary for this purpose that the people or government of England should be con- stantly interfering in the details of colonial business. It is not desirable that we shou...ld regulate these matters according to notions which cannot be half so correct as those of the colonists themselves. But even if it were desirable, and if we were convinced that a colony could never be well governed except by the enlightened opinion, or the responsible ministers of the mother-country, we should still be unconvinced of the possibility of securing an effectual appeal to either. If the public opinion of the British community, and the attention of its legislature and ministry, could indeed be brought to bear on each colonial question as it arises, and to give it the same earnest consideration that it gives to any English question of the same importance, the reference to this country would be productive of no ill, but much good.
