What reading level is The Drink Problem in Modern Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

His leisure and yours, his environment and yours, his food and the conditions of its preparation, his recreations, companionships — in one word, his resources and yours — do you know, not how like, but how utterly unlike they are ? And yet, when you talk to this brother man, you are surprised, it may be, to find in him tastes and sympathies 20 THE DRINK PROBLEM and aspirations not unlike your own ! What chance have they, and what warrant have you and I, for criticisms, behind which has been no ...single effort to better the habits which they assail, or the conditions out of which those habits have sprung ?
You will gather from all this how superficial, how utterly inhuman, inconsiderate, and unrea- sonable I regard a great deal of that doubtless often well-intentioned zeal which seeks to make men and women virtuous and temperate by a law of indiscriminate repression. I do ! I do !
and if I am sent here of God for nothing else, I am sent here to tell you that ; and to entreat you to discern that most of our methods for dealing with the drink-evil in our day and generation are tainted with falsehood, dishonored by essen- tial unreality, and discredited by widespread and consistent failure.
