What reading level is The Lutherans of New York book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When we have forgotten our German we shall be out of touch with theLutherans who come to us from the Fatherland. For the time being theWorld War has put an end to German immigration, but this will not lastforever. Some time certainly immigration will be resumed, and as informer periods will be an unfailing source of supply for the Lutheranchurches of New York.
In the nineteenth century the "Americanized" Lutherans did notunderstand the Germans who came over in such overwhelming numbers, andwere... unprepared to shepherd them in Lutheran folds. The work had to bedone by immigrant pastors who, on their part, did not understand theAmerican life well enough to accomplish the best results. For the sakeof the Lutherans who come to us from foreign lands we cannot afford tolose touch with the historical languages of their churches.
At the beginning of the nineteenth century the use of German had sunkalmost to zero. The minutes of the German Society had to be written inEnglish because no one was sufficiently versed in German to write themin this language.
