To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not a newspaper, to be thrown when read into the waste- paper basket, never to be looked at again. And Mr. Oliver's readers, who a few years hence turn over his vivid pages, may regret that the author had not made more use of his powerful pen to maintain, like " A Patriot Statesman, " **The Day against the Moment, and the Year Against the Day ... " The upshot of the " Ordeal " would seem to be that nothing has gone well with the British nation, at all events since Waterloo. We have never ...had a foreign policj^ all that time, nor would it appear a statesman either ! We are now, for the first time, beginning to wake up to that rather elementary fact that policy and armaments are dependent upon each other ! And in the last two or three generations it would seem that things have been going worse than ever. It actually appears that " since the Liberal Government came into power in the autumn of 1905. Neither of the great parties had succeeded in earning the respect of the other " ; from which the conclusion is drawn that political leadership has got to a very low level.
