What reading level is The National Being book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

There is, Ibelieve, a powerful Irish character which has begun to reassert itselfin modern times, and this character is in essentials what it was twothousand years ago. We discover its first manifestation in the ancientclans. The clan was at once aristocratic and democratic. It wasaristocratic in leadership and democratic in its economic basis. Themost powerful character was elected as chief, while the land was theproperty of the clan. That social order indicates the true politicalcharacter of ...the Irish. Races which last for thousands of years do notchange in essentials. They change in circumstance. They may grow betteror worse, but throughout their history the same fundamentals appear andreassert themselves. We can see later in Irish literature or politics, as powerful personalities emerged and expressed themselves, how theancient character persisted. Swift, Goldsmith, Berkeley, O'Grady, Shaw, Wilde, Parnell, Davitt, Plunkett, and many others, however they differedfrom each other, in so far as they betrayed a political character, wereintensely democratic in economic theory, adding that to an aristocraticfreedom of thought.
