What reading level is Dinner Commemorative of Charles Sumner And Complimentary to Edward L Pierce Bo book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is proper, in this connection, to say that in this inter course between a distinguished public man and one much younger than himself there was no self-assertion on the one side or unmanly deference on the other. I was always frank in questioning to his face his position or his action, as frank as I could be with any of yourselves. Once or twice, when I was quite a young man, others put on me the duty of saying to him things which they did not like to say themselves. He never took offence, bu...t always kindly received such criticisms. So much for my personal rela tions with him of whom I have written.
Sumner in his will designated Henry W. Longfellow, Francis V. Balch, and myself as his literary executors, with full power to preserve or destroy his papers ; but he made no suggestion then or at any other time as to the choice of a biographer. That was a matter which did not seem to concern him ; but his interest centred in his last years on the preparation of a complete edition of his speeches, which he sometimes spoke of as his " Life.
