What reading level is The Life of Henry Laurens, With a Sketch of the Life of Lieutenant-Colonel John Laurens book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A loyal British subject was being unconsciously but not the less inevitably prepared for a step upon which he would as yet have looked with horror.
Meanwhile the conflict at home knew no cessation. Four- teen acts on non-controverted subjects were passed in 1770 and '71 ; but between March 20, 1771, and March 4, 1775, there is a complete blank in the statute book. Thence until the Revolu- tion only two acts were passed: one to revive certain import duties for the support of the established chur...ch and a large number of other laws necessary for public order, and one for punishing cotmterfeiters. No general tax bill was passed after 1769.
At first the Council had been unanimous in its stand ; but by 1773 three of its native South Carolina members were ready to take the side of the popular party against the five English placemen. Two of the former published in the South Carolina Gazette a protest presented in the Council by William Henry Drayton against the conduct of that body. The Council, claiming the prerogatives of a legislative house, placed the printer, Thomas Powell, under arrest for contempt.
