What reading level is Germany And Germans book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A purely national ideal was possible in the days of the isolation of nations, but in our times, when the world * has become one neighbourhood ', other claims, duties, and responsibilities demand a place in the framing of the Politik. But Germany, instead of forming a new kind of empire, followed the well-worn path of military ambition, and aimed at establishing a domination of the type already existent, striving to build by rapid and powerful acts an empire like those behind which lie centuries... of quiet growth or obstinate struggle. She claimed to share the rule of primitive races without undergoing the discipline which has taught Britain her slowly learnt lessons. She desired admiralty without the price of it. In passing the bounds of Europe she entered into competition with other European nations which had gradually and almost unconsciously acquired paramount influence in Africa, Asia, and America.
It was natural that Germany, having conceived no original or new ideal of empire, should make her aim a copy of the aims of Great Britain, France, and Russia, and it was no fault of hers that she entered so late into the brotherhood of empires and found, like the dreaming poet in Schiller's verses, the world already distributed to others.
