What reading level is The Life And Letters of Henry Cecil Raikes Late Her Majestys Postmaster Genera book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In a letter to his mother, dated April 2, Mr. Raikes gives an interesting account of the first use of the Closure against Mr. Gladstone, in whose fertile brain this method of restraining exuberant oratory had originated. He wrote " The scene of last night is so fresh in my mind that I can hardly think of anything else, and, indeed, if I were to live another fifty years its recollection would, I think, still stir a sort of nervous vibration of the strange passion and excitement of that historic ...occasion. The Gladstonian party now stand so frankly committed to revolutionary proceedings as well as principles, that it is indeed a comfort to think that the new era has shown them to be so decidedly in a minority. For if Mr. Gladstone were ever again in power at the head of the faction he now leads, it is pretty clear that no tradition or consideration would be allowed to stay his reckless career. When he walked out of the House last night at the head of his myrmidons, after his own Speaker had applied his own device of Closure to his obstructive proceedings, I felt it really painful to see such a miserable conclusion of so striking a history.
