To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They are very much like the rest of us--many of 'em more so. Human nature is stripped in these times of most of its disguises, and men have to stand and be judged as a rule by their real qualities. Among all the men in high place here, Sir Edward Grey stands out in my mind bigger, not smaller, than he stood in the beginning. He's a square, honourable gentleman, if there is one in this world. And it is he, of course, with whom I have had all my troubles. It's been a truly great experience to wor...k and to quarrel with such a man. We've kept the best friendship--a constantly ripening one. There are others like him--only smaller. Yet they are all in turn set upon by the press or public opinion and hounded like criminals. They try (somebody tries) to drive 'em out of office every once in a while. If there's anything I'm afraid of, it's the newspapers. The correspondents are as thick as flies in summer--all hunting sensations--especially the yellow American press. I play the game with these fellows always squarely, sometimes I fear indiscreetly.
