What reading level is Learning, And Other Essays book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

HOWE in Massachusetts, in 1852. This institution was quite as exclusively Howe's creation as was the School for the Blind, and over it also he extended his domestic influence. "He passed like light through the rooms. Charley Smith, gentlest of fifty-year-old children, would leave his wooden horse to run to him. They loved him, the children whom he had rescued from worse than death. When he died they grieved for him after their fashion, and among all the tributes to his memory, none was more tou...ching than theirs: 'He will take care of the blmd in heaven. Won't he take care of us too?' " It is not because of any one thing that he has done or said that Howe is important.
It is because he was by nature endowed with an unconscious, spontaneous vision of truth in regard to the defective classes. When dealing with them, he sees society as a whole and these classes as parts of it. He saw that the whole of society must be used in order to work out this problem. The state and the individual, the influence of Christ and the value of money; in fact all social factors are, in Howe's mind, viewed as elements in that solid mesh and transparent unity of suffering force — humanity.
