What reading level is The Slave Trade, Domestic And Foreign book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not an easy task to replace all the bone-earth, potash, sulphur, magnesia, and organized nitrogen in mould consumed in a field which has been unwisely cultivated fifty or seventy-five years. Phosphorus is not an abundant mineral anywhere, and his _sub-soil_ is about the only resource of the husbandman after his surface-soil has lost most of its phosphates. The three hundred thousand persons that cultivate these eight million acres of impoverished soils annually produce less by twenty-five... dollars each than they would if the land had not been injured.
"The aggregate of this loss to the State and the world is seven million five hundred thousand dollars per annum, or more than seven per cent. Interest on what it would cost to renovate the deteriorated soils. There is no possible escape from this oppressive tax on labour of seven million five hundred thousand dollars, but to improve the land, or run off and leave it. "--_Patent Office Report_, 1849 It is not slavery that produces exhaustion of the soil, but exhaustionof the soil that causes slavery to continue.
