What reading level is Brigham Young And His Mormon Empire book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Democracy must be submerged by the mob or superseded by a semi-feudal political machine before cruelty or thiev- ery can thrive on a large scale on the soil of freedom. We may here point the converse of that moral. The machinery of a theocratic despotism is ready for any crime, when grasped by the hand of a scoundrel. The men who engineered the massacre at Mountain Mead- ows were both sacerdotal and military officers of the Mormon kingdom. They were knit together in the bonds of martial and ecc...lesiastical discipline. The very signal for murder was an appeal to their mis- guided loyalty "Do your duty!" Lee and Haight and Dame and Higbee and Klingensmith did not need to alter a single detail in the organization of Zion's empire. They needed only to assign it the task which their villainy had conceived. John Doyle Lee was finally convicted, and was ex- ecuted on the scene of his crime, March 23, 1877. His execution was just; and a goodly company might have been kneeling beside him on their coffins with no loss to the world, and no miscarriage of justice.
