What reading level is Then And Now Oration By Charles a Sumner book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Suppose that this number of persons are thoroughly informed in the premises, and fully aware of the necessity for breaking up the corruption which springs from the monopoly that is thus to be defeated and overthrown. Is it an incredible thing ? Are we asking or proposing a co-operation and combination that is simply ridiculous ? Is it so in this Centennial Year ? This latter in- vestment would add twenty-five millions to the enterprise. Then, are there not twenty thousand persons who would inve...st two thousand dollars each ? Aggregating forty millions of dollars. In all one hundred and sixty-five millions enough to construct a railroad and a ten-wire telegraph line across the continent ! The very figures, when spread before the eye, indicate, and it seems to me demonstrate, the entire reasonableness of the expectation provided there is any truth in our assuming a deep seated and wide- spread spirit of patriotism in the Republic. Public spirit is patriotism, when applied to the business enterprises of a great country.
