What reading level is Prize Orations of the Intercollegiate Peace Association volume 1914 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Then, they say, we shall have peace. Is this reasonable ? As sure as thought leads to action, so preparation for war leads to war. This argu- ment that the United States, since she is a peace-loving nation, should have the largest navy in the world in order to preserve peace is illogical and without foun- dation. By what divine right does the United States assume the role of preserving the world's peace at the cannon's mouth? Since when has it been true that might makes right, and that peace ca...n be secured only by acting the part of a bully? It is unjust, it is 42 PRIZE ORATIONS unpatriotic, it is unstatesmanlike, for men to argue that the United States should browbeat the world into submis- sion ; that she should build so many battleships that the nations of the Eastern Hemisphere will be afraid to oppose the ironclad dragon of the Western Hemisphere. Peace purchased at the price of brute force is unworthy of the name. Surely the United States cannot afford to be guilty of such an injustice.
