What reading level is Charles Sumner the Idealist Statesman And Scholar book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For the maintenance of such sentiments he bore, with patience and his usual firmness, the storm of opprobrium, which at a later time his Battle-flag Resolution raised, receiving without a remonstrance the censure of his beloved commonwealth, until at last the true public policy prevailed, toiling slowly up to the height upon which he stood, and the old Bay State, with averted head, tore out the shameful page from her statute book and sent a negro, one of her own law-givers and the Senator's per...sonal friend, to announce the retraction.
When slavery considered itself best intrenched, and had insolently leaped over the slight wall of freedom, just rearing its crested head, it was Sumner who prophesied the down-fall, which he lived to see. When treason was stealing forts and hurrying our ships to foreign waters, and northern sycophants were endeavoring to apply the old poultice of compromise, short-sighted men, well-meaning men, perhaps, who would have " saved " the Union with tears and surrender of principle, rather than by the strong arms of its loyal defenders, came to him, among them life-long friends, respected instructors once, allies in politics often, with revered leaders, whose age begot respect; but they found him inflexible.
