What reading level is Abraham Lincoln the Young Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Like the South American chief, "great ideas make them very sleepy. " We need young men who are resolute enough to think life through and come to clear, definite conclusions about it. Abraham Lincoln did this.
Again let me sketch in the line of Lincoln's rugged, uncompromising honesty. His store in the country village was a financial failure. That was no fault of his. He had not found his sphere of most profitable activity. The failure was caused by no sharp or dishonest practice of his. A debt ...of eleven hundred dollars was thrown upon his shoulders, 3 burden which seemed to be insur- mountable. Under these circumstances it was the custom for men to "clear out, " in the language of the time. Lincoln did not clear out. Going to his creditors he told them that if they would let him alone he would pay them what he owed as fast as he could do it. It took fifteen years for him to keep his promise; but he did it. At last every note, with the interest at high rates, had been paid and he was able to stand up in the face of every man knowing that the obligations were met with honor.
