What reading level is The Supreme Importance of Reading book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The casual skimming of our lightest dailies, even this is done by a much smaller proportion of our popu- lation than is commonly supposed. The most popular of our weeklies and monthlies have each a circulation of less than a million and a half. A few thousand read books of wisdom ; a few hundred thousand read books and journals of learn- ing ; a few millions out of our ninety millions read books and journals of minor information and of meagre imagination ; and of the remaining many millions onl...y a few read even the headlines of the most trifling journals.
Scarcely one in fifty of all the 50, 000, 000 possible readers of the country ever bought a copy of the most popular novel ; not more than three or four in fifty ever looked at a copy of the most widely read of recent novels. Proceed to books of some importance, such as Eliot's " More Money for the Public Schools, " and James's " Pragmatism, " and you find that only a few thousand out of the fifty million ever read them and scarcely a hundred thousand ever looked at them.
