What reading level is The Function of Great Men book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He was reverent of good things by nature ; and to him all good things were great. He had no flippant flings at the simple religion of his mother ; but, leaning on his strong arm, as upon her beautiful staff, to the end, from the White House, as from the log cabin of Orange, they walked to the House of God in company. And when the assassin first sought him, he sought him where he knew he would be, in the sanctuary of God. He was reverent of that great man, still living, who answered his letter o...f inquiry as to a future College, " Come on, and we will do the best we can for you;" and who was crowned when the people crowned his pupil. And he himself has said, that beyond all that he ever got through his eastern Alma Mater, from books, was the impression made upon his moral nature, by that greatest of all American teachers, who is so much more than even he can teach. And who can ever forget, how it was that fateful July morning ; how like a buoyant- hearted boy, he was turning aside from his great duties for one day of reunion, and the renewal of old College comradeship, when the assassin found him ?
