What reading level is James Madison book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

The President followed up the act prohibiting the introduction of British goods by sending William Pinkney to England in the spring of 1806, to join Monroe, the resident minister, in an attempt at negotiation.
These commissioners soon wrote that there was good reason for hoping that a treaty would be con- cluded, and thereupon the non-importation act was for a time suspended. In December came the news that a treaty was agreed upon, and soon after it was received by the President. The most seri-
... ous difficulty in the way of negotiation had been the question of impressment. The British gov- ernment claimed the right to arrest deserters from its service anywhere outside the jurisdiction of other nations, and that jurisdiction, it was main- tained, could not extend beyond the coast limit over the open sea, the highway of all nations.
There was an evident disposition, however, to come to some compromise. The English commission- ers proposed that their government should pro- hibit, under penalty, the seizure of American cit- izens anywhere, and that the United States should forbid, on her part, the granting of certificates of citizenship to British subjects of wliich deserters took advantage.
