What reading level is Ten New England Leaders book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Walking abroad, and Travelling . . . being a common practice on the Sabbath day, which is contrary unto that Rest en- joyned by the Commandment. Yea, some that attend their particular servile callings and employments after the Sabbath is begun, or before it is ended. . . . There are many Familyes that doe not pray to God constantly morning and evening, and many more wherein the Scriptures are not daily read. . . . Nay, children & Servants are not kept in due subjection; their Masters, and Paren...ts especially, being sinfully indulgent towards them." The remedies proposed, in order that God's anger might be averted from the suffering land, included a general " Renewal of the Covenant " in the churches, the enforcement of discipline, the better support of schools, a more efficient regulation of the liquor traffic, and " a full supply of Officers in the Churches, accord- ing to Christ's Institution." This last-named sug- gestion of amendment reminds us that, by 1679, the elaborate and supposedly exclusively Scriptural officer- ing of churches with pastor, teacher, ruling elder and deacons, had largely given place to the more eco- nomical service of a single paid officer, the pastor, and the assistance of the deacons.
