What reading level is Memoir of Col Chas S Todd book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is gratifying to me to know that Harrison did not think favorably of the in- stitution of slavery, that great blot upon the fair fame of our country. He did not grapple with this question, as did the statesmen of a later period; but he acknowledged the evil, and said that we must wait " the slow but certain progress of those good prin- ciples which are everywhere gaining ground, and which assuredly will ultimately prevail. " Colonel Todd also gives us Harrison's opinion on duelling, another ...wretched and barbarous practice, not yet wholly without its advocates in many parts of our country. General Harrison said that "the wealth and honor of the world would not tempt him to level a pistol at the breast of a man whom he had injured. " He also said that, while he was in command of the Northwestern army, he declared his determination to punish, by all means that the military laws placed in his hands, any injury, or even insult, which should be offered by the superior to the inferior officer, and that during his entire command he had the satisfac- tion of knowing that not a single duel had been fought in his army, or even a challenge given.
