What reading level is The Lincoln Memorial a Record of the Life Assassination And Obsequies of the book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They met each other as if each would ask the othei', "Am I awake, or do I dream ?" There was a piteous helplessness. Strong men bowed down and wept. Other and common griefs belong to some one in chief, they are pri- vate property ; but this was each man's and every man's. Every virtuous household in the land felt as if its first-born were gone. Men took it home. They were bereaved, and walked for days as if a corpse lay unburied in their dwellings. There was nothing else to think of. They could... speak of nothing but that, and yet of that they could speak only falteringly. All business was laid aside, pleasure forgot to smile. The city for nearly a week ceased to roar, and great Leviathan laid down and was still. Even Avarice stood still, and Greed was strangely moved to generous sympathy with universal sorrow. Eear to his name monuments, found chari- table institutions, and with his name above their heights, but no mon- ument will ever equal the universal, spontaneous, and sublime sorrow that in a moment swept down lines and parties, 'and covered up animosities, and in an hour brought a divided people with unity of grief and indivisible fellowship of anguish !
