What reading level is John Hay Scholar Statesman An Address Delivered Before the Alumni Association book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He had stored his mind with the garnered wisdom of the ages and could view the present and forecast the future in the light of the past, could judge Scholar -Statesman 13 what men might do by what men had done. If in the presence of new problems he had no clue from the past, he had all the light that knowledge of the past could give. His forty years of training, of study of men and of governments, his intimate knowledge of his own and other lands and peoples and institutions, fitted him, as per...haps no other man in the land was fitted, for the great task of formulating and putting in operation the new policy for the greater Republic.
It would be difficult to find in our history a train- ing in statesmanship comparable to his. The over- shadowing, all-powerful portion of it was, of course, the six-year period with Lincoln. That alone would have made a useful public servant out of far inferior material. Out of Hay, it made a great statesman.
You are all familiar with Emerson's noble pic- ture of Lincoln during this period : " There, by his courage, his justice, his even temper, his fertile council, his humanity, he stood a heroic figure in the centre of a heroic epoch.
