What reading level is Life Letters And Speeches of James Louis Petigru the Union Man of South Caroli book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The States that are true to the Union might very probably put down the military force of the seceding States, but when they have done that, what is to be the issue? They would have to change the Consti- tution to meet the case. But to change the Constitution in its essential character is a Revolution, and is no cure for the evil in the eyes oi those who are anxious to preserve it.
Therefore I think that the States that adhere to the Consti- tution will be compelled by the necessities of their s...ituation to let the Gulf States go without any way to prevent them. If anv 372 Life^ Letters and Speeches way does grow immediately out of secession it will probably arise out of the pretension of Louisiana to control the Mouth of the Mississippi.
Nobody can tell what the end of all this is to be — but it can not be for good. As to the Southern Confederacy, it is formed on principles that are hollow, and rotten, on the shallow conceit that all nations will pay tribute to King Cotton; and that our new reading of "The Whole Duty of Man" will be accepted by Christendom.
