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

9 democratic state would not knowingly wage an aggressive or un- just war against another statei But there is another reason — and possibly this is even stronger than the one which I have just stated — for asserting that the prin- ciple of democracy is the great enemy of war as well as the great guarantor of international peace. If I have drawn true conclusions from history, I am correct in saying that the people of every nation entitled to be called " civilized " desire peace and abhor war ; t...hat a people, appreciating the real object, have never entered upon a war of conquest provided their will found true and free expression ; and that they do not willfully oppress the weak or act unjustly toward their neighbors. In a word, the conscience of an enlightened people-;-and I mean by " people " all the people and not a privileged political class — checks the evil motives of their Government and only fails to direct national conduct aright when their public serv- ants are not subject to the will of all or when theiy misrepresent the popular desires.
