What reading level is Selected Addresses volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


So eager were the Jews to win over their neighbors from absurd beliefs that sanctioned vices, to the great religion that made God and righteousness one, that they resorted to a strange device. Seeing that the Greeks had great faith in the mystic teachings of the sybils women-prophets, presumed to be inspired by the gods, and fearing that their public attempts at conversion would not be given credence, even if permitted at all they put the vital truths of Judaism in the form of Greek sibylline p
...rophecies. To put one's words in the mouths of ancient teachers to gain for them authority, was a common practice of antiquity, of which some instances are even found in the Bible and Apocrypha. Literary conscientiousness is a very modern virtue.
That some Jews actually travelled from place to place to make converts is the best reply to the theory that pro- selytism is against our principles. And very successful these missionaries were. A Jewish merchant at an Asiatic court expounded the principles of his faith with such fervor that his hearers embraced it then and there- The historian, Graetz, goes on to tell us how a young prince was among the converts, and that his queen- mother, Helen, had become such a passionate adherent of Judaism that she made a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and aided it in time of famine.
