What reading level is Dramatic Moments in American Diplomacy book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They had instruc- IN AMERICAN DIPLOMACY 93 tions to buy New Orleans. They had the Brit- ish Fleet up their sleeves. But those who presume that our ambassadors have been an ornamental and negligible quantity in the fate of this country would do well to observe that these men, weeks away from home, took upon themselves the purchase of this great territory without a scrap of orders. The details of these ambassadorial contests always have a great interest.
Livingston describes the opening thus: "Wh...ile he (Monroe) and several other gentle- men were at dinner with me, I observed the Minister of the Treasury walking in my gar- den. * * * While we were taking coffee he came in, and after being some time in the room, we strolled into the next room, when he told me * * * that he thought I might have some- thing particular to say to him, and had taken the first opportunity to call on me. " We have the advantage of Livingston as the great international bargain began. The be- ginning was ingenious enough, considering 94 DRAMATIC MOMENTS that Barbe-Marbois had Napoleon's order to sell without delay.
