What reading level is A Drive Through England Or a Thousand Miles of Road Travel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
95 post was stuck with 'Dangerous' plainly written thereon ; but the cause of the danger was not so clear, nor the reason why the post was there at all, unless indeed it could possibly be to warn fox-hunters against attempting to ford the stream at that spot ; but then again, it could hardly be for that, for even the most enthusiastic hunter would scarcely deli- berately attempt a ford when he could go over a bridge close by dryshod and without fatigue to his horse or loss of ground.
The river ...appeared to be very tranquil, not to say dull and slow, so it could hardly be intended for boating men ; therefore, as we could not solve the riddle, and there was no one about to do so for us, we gave it up.
It afforded us a good deal of interest and amuse- ment from time to time on our journey, to reason the why and wherefore of many puzzling things we saw. For instance, at one place we passed a few miles back we observed the church was built on the top of a bleak hill without even a solitary tree or a shrub near, and far away from all houses; we concluded it must have been erected thus, as a land- mark in years past, when the country around was a forest wilderness.
