What reading level is The Great Railroad Conspiracy the Social History of a Railroad War book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At least one month had been wasted when one or another of the defendants and jurors was stricken by disease in that stifling summer heat and could not make an appearance in court. At first, opposing counsel had agreed to let the proceedings continue without prejudice to either side. But by the end of July, the defense lawyers, stung by repeated adverse decisions of the court, stubbornly refused to enter into any further stipulations to waive their clients' rights. Court had therefore to adjourn... from day to day until the absent defend- ant or juror was able to return. Almost two weeks were thus lost at the end of July when two of the prisoners came down with diarrhea, and two more in August when two others succumbed to the heat and filth of the crowded jail and died of dysentery. The long delays wearied the survivors and frayed the professional court- room courtesy of the lawyers, who began snapping at each other in their heated legal wrangles. Not until September 4 did counsel begin their closing arguments to the jury and then for three weeks matched the heat of Indian summer with their perfervid oratory.
