What reading level is Record of An Obscure Man book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even in Congo — which seems to have been almost more than any other part of Africa depraved and ruined by the slave- trade — Tuckey found that the domestic slave was not subject to sale. Captives taken in war, and men who have incurred slavery as a penalty, are excepted from these privileges ; but only in their own persons ; their children have the rights of do- mestic bondmen. The African serf has generally light work and gentle treatment. Park says, that, in all labors, mechanic or agricultur...al, the master is seen working with the bondman, ' without any dis- tinction of superiority.' As Murray sums it up : c The slavery of African to African is compara- tively mild. The labor required in this state of society is not such as to impose suffering or ex- haustion ; the slave sits on the same mat with his master, eats out of the same dish, and talks with him as with an equal.' It is the foreign trade in men that has introduced those elements of horror which make us shudder at the words, African Slavery.
