What reading level is Richard Croker book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And to the quiet of his con- science, it is to be doubted if he could have told one word of how that glittering, pleasing marvel came about. He had millions; and he didn't know how. Yet the riddle was not difficult. As President he held that lamp of magic which one had only to rub, to make all about him rich.
It skills nothing to go over the long and tangled trail of Cleveland's money-getting, with all its windings, twists, and curious turns. And whether, in the heap- ing and sweeping together,... it came from Bed Top or Gray Gables; from bonds or stock deals or traction com- panies; or woodpulp patents; or Nova Scotia coal; or Cuban iron; or whatever its thousand sources, it was an enormous sum for one to have from a capital of money-ignorance and nothing in twelve years; and it failed not to impress Cleveland and affect him. In his last reign his great reverence was for money; his respect was kept for those who possessed it. Poverty was synonymous with ignorance; wisdom went only with wealth.
