What reading level is The Family; An Historical And Social Study book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the first place, we are constrained to believe that the abolition of dower and of curtesy would prove of advantage. In Indiana, and a few other States, these rights of the wife and of the husband have been dis- placed by an absolute ownership in the real property remaining at decease. A similar change in the legisla- tion of each State would be of service. The right of dower is of small worth in many instances in which it should be of the most value. Particularly is this the truth in the cas...e of property in a farm. The wife in a family occupying a farm works hard and earns much ; and her rights of dower as a widow do not at all repre- sent her earnings. Ownership in part would be more commensurate with her dues; and ownership would not wrong others in whom claims might be vested. In this same field, we again remark that the property rights of husband and of wife should be regarded as equal: that is, the wife should have the same interests in her husband's estate that the husband has in his wife's estate.
