What reading level is The Olive Branch of Peace And Good Will to Men Anti War History of the Brethren book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As the shadow may be greater than the body itself, so the fame of a man may be greater than the man really is. But this is not the case with the truly noble men who rose above selfishness, above sectional feeling, and partisan bigotry in answer to every appeal for justice and protection.
Such a man was Mr. Allen Spangler, who came to the rescue of Brother Hutchison, an innocent and in- offensive man, and at the critical moment seized the officer and compelled him to order the guns down that wer...e aimed at Brother Hutchison by the soldiers who had orders to shoot him down in five minutes. Such a man was Judge Baxter, of Richmond, Va. , who treated the Brethren and Mennonites so consider- ately, expressing his regrets that they were detained from their homes by the pressure of business, and other unavoidable circumstances. Such a man was Alexan- der H. Stephens who, when Brother Wrightsman presented his petition, gave the matter the most court- eous and considerate attention. Such a man was Pres- ident Davis who, when written to by Brother Moomaw concerning the unwarrantable impressment of a num- ber of young Brethren into the army, replied to Broth- er Moomaw at once, stating that he had given his letter to the Secretary of War for attention, and the major who had caused the trouble was called to Richmond to give account of his procedure.
