What reading level is Sketches And Reminiscences book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I recognize the fact that public opinion stamps its impress upon all the institutions of society, and gives tone to our schools and col- leges, the learned professions and industrial pursuits. This public opinion in turn is influenced and shaped by the refining and elevating effect of our institutions of learning. They act and react upon each other. The supply of learning, like the supply of goods, is apt to be suited to the demand. As long as the people are content with bigotry in the pulpit, ...pedantry in the professor's chair, quackery in medicine, ignorance on the bench and at the bar, demagogism in legislation and a low standard of education for the youths and maidens of the land, these evils will flourish, and spread their baleful influence throughout the entire community.
In behalf of our common schools too much cannot be said, and the State cannot be too liberal in the dissemination of elementary knowledge among her children. These schools are the mudsills of society, but the superstructure is builded of material supplied by our institutions of higher learning, and it is essential to the welfare of the State that a liberal education should be bestowed upon the largest possible number of her citizens.
