What reading level is Memorial of John Harvard the Gift to Harvard University of Samuel James Bridge book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The edifice contained all the relics and treas- ured gatherings of the college for more than sixscore years after its foundation. Besides the library of Harvard, the whole libraries of Drs. Lightfoot and Theophilus Gale, bequeathed or given to the college, rich in Hebrew, patristic, and classic lore, donations of learned societies and corpora- tions, gifts of many generous private benefactors abroad and at home, medical preparations, and a font of Greek type, etc. , perished in the conflagratio...n. There were about five thou- sand volumes. Valuable philosophical apparatus, of the high- est quality of the time, and rich in variety, portraits of eminent men and benefactors, college records, and much miscellaneous matter, were included in the ruin.
By this volume alone we stretch a hand across the cen- turies, and hold a single relic of Harvard.
The founder of this college was an English Puritan min- ister. That fact is a fragment of an historical truth of large import. The distinctive character and qualities of the New England Colonies impressed and effective from the earliest days, entailed and expanding and radiating over our whole country to this day of its extent and grandeur are to be referred to that truth, which may be thus simply stated.
