What reading level is Disunion And Slavery a Series of Letters to Hon W L Yancey of Alabama book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Even if the Union, then, be only a. Treaty, — a compact between the States, — it is nevertheless binding upon them all. Each one is bound to abide by all its engagements, — to discharge faithfully the obligations into which it has entered.
You may say they are sovereign, and, therefore, sole masters of their own acts, — judges of their own obligations, — and subject to no common and controlling tribunal. Even if they were so once, they ceased to be so when they parted with a por- tion of their
...sovereignty and agreed to accept a common arbiter. No nation can be so absolutely sovereign as not to be bound by its own obligations. Suppose we take the opposite position, — that any State has a right to secede at will : where will it land us ? If one State may secede another may. Suppose all resolve upon secession : What becomes of the Federal Government ? What becomes of its obligations, — of its debts, — its common property, — of its engagements entered into with foreign Pow- ers ?
