What reading level is Sir George Grey Governor High Commissioner And Premier An Historical Biogra book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As Daniel Webster once threatened to pay the United States' national debt out of his own impecunious pocket. Sir George Grey more seriously resolved to carry on the system at his own expense, and he laid out £6, 000 on this benevolent object. Of course, he well knew that the British Government could not remain indebted to one HIGH COMMISSIONER IN SOUTH AFRICA 105 of its own servants, and the sum was ultimately repaid him.
Meanwhile, he fought hard for his cherished system. He was reminded that ...he was laying heavy burdens on the British taxpayer, and he might have remembered that the taxes on the prime necessaries of life, such as tea and sugar, were then burdensome. In vain did he plead that, by averting war, his civilising schemes made a vast saving to the country. None the less, he had not the smallest intention of accepting the retrenchment. Professing sub- mission, as always, he practised rebellion, as always. He continued his expenditure as before, unreduced. The Treasury accounts for the following year showed that he had exceeded the annual vote by no less a sum than £46, 000.
