What reading level is The Story of Abraham Lincoln volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Nothing would arouse his ire more than for the other side to misrepresent or con- fuse the facts. Jumping to his full height, towering over everybody else in the room, he would shout: "Your Honor, that ain't so — and I can prove it!" He would never take a case in which he did not believe himself, and for this reason, as well as his sincerity, he usually won. There are literally hundreds of stories told of those years of law practice, which lasted for a quarter of a century — from 1836 to 1860. ...Books have been made up of these anecdotes, and they are interesting reading indeed. Very often they have their element of humor, for Lincoln dearly loved a joke. Again they were dramatic or unexpected. One story is con- nected with Jack Armstrong, the bully whom Lincoln thrashed, and who became his friend. Years afterward, Jack's son, growing up to ABRAHAM LINCOLN 69 manhood, got into a fight one evening and was accused of the murder of a man. The mother came pleading with Lincoln to save her son from the gallows.
