What reading level is Cautions to Continental Travellers By Jw Cunningham book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" If one half of this is true, can any motives, which are not of the weightiest nature, justify Englishmen in exposing the females of their family, especially by a protracted visit to these countries, to the contagion of such habits i The truth is, that in France, especially, the whole education and discipline of the female sex is directed to a different object from that which is contemplated in England. A French woman is edu- cated simply and exclusively for display. No virtue will atone for t...he absence of the power of drawing and fixing attention : scarcely any vice will tarnish the lustre of this power. What a " damning proof" of the truth of these assertions has a late trial in France supplied to the surrounding nations ? A woman had been detected in most infamous circumstances. When brought to the bar, as a witness in a most awful case of murder, she admitted her own in- famy — she repeatedly perjured herself — she insulted the judges — she trifled with the lives of the prisoners — she sported with the murder itself — and yet, because she fainted at the proper moment, because she encountered the queries of the court with frontless insensibility, because she strutted over this field of blood like an actress — because she played a part, and spoke in metaphor, she was almost worshipped at Paris under the title of " the Angel of Destiny.
