What reading level is Masterpieces of Modern Oratory book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Choate a " political mountebank, " and alludes to the " cuckoo lips of Edward Everett." In his lecture on " Idols," after making various nations eulogize their great lawyers, he con- cludes, " Then New England shouts, ' This is Choate, who made it safe to murder, and of whose health thieves asked before they began to steal ! ' " Contrasted with the calmness and attractiveness of Phillips's manner, imagine the effect as these thunderbolts were hurled. Keen and graceful as a Damascus blade, his i...nvective, it has been well said, lends new meaning to the term " philippic." The Richmond Inquirer, speaking of him before the Civil War, said, "Wendell Phillips is an infernal machine set to music." His speeches are full of striking phrases. Prior examples are illus- trativie. Following are a few others, selected almost at random : 158 THE SCHOLAR IN A REPUBLIC " The man who launches a sound argument, who sets on two feet a startling fact, and bids it travel from Maine to Georgia, is just as certain that in the end he will change the government, as if, to destroy the Capitol, he had placed gunpowder under the Senate Chamber.'' " The race is rich enough to afford to do without the greatest intellects God ever let the Devil buy.
