What reading level is How New York City is Governed book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The manner in which this kind of spoliation is sometimes effected may be gathered from a narra- tive which we received from the lips of one of the few learned and estimable men whom the system of electing judges by the people ha« left upon the bench in the city of New York. Four years ago, when the inflation of the currency had so en- hanced the price of all commodities that there was, of neces- sity, a general increase of salaries, public and private, there was talk of raising the salaries of ...the fourteen judges, who were most absurdly underpaid even when a dollar m paper and a dollar in gold were the same thing. Some of the judges were severely pinched in attempting to make six thousand half-dollars do the work which six thousand whole ones had accomplished with difficulty ; and none, perhaps, more se- verely than the excellent and hospitable judge whose experi- ence we are about to relate. A person known by him to be in the confidence of leading men about the City Hall called upon him one day, and informed him that it was in contem- plation to raise the salaries of all the judges $ 2, 000 per an- num.
