What reading level is New Englands Struggles for Religious Liberty book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" And yet we learn from the Plymouth laws that in 1659, (another. ?) John Cooke, of Plymouth, with Isaac Robinson, and two others, was permitted to attend for a time the meetings of the Quakers, " to endeavor to reduce them from the error of theire vvayes. " According to Prof. Newman, Mr. Cooke was " among the more noted members of the church [in Newport] during the latter part of the cen- tury, . . And was still living in 1694. " It has also been stated that he died at Dartmouth. I am not able... to reconcile all these differing statements.
Mr. Turner's subsequent history deserves at least brief mention, inasmuch as he became eminently use- ful in the service of his country. Though at first de- nied a commission because he was an Anabaptist, yet he afterward served as commander in King Philip's war — his fellow-sufferer, Edward Drinker, also serving as lieutenant — and was finally slain by the Indians. Under his command, " as an instrument in the hand of the Lord, ' was the greatest blow struck to the Indians of any they had received ; for after this they were broken and scattered so that they were overcome and subdued with ease.
