What reading level is A History of American Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" These views he never seriously modified, and he developed them in his last and most serious critical volume, The Nature and Ele- ments of Poetry. All his critical essays are careful work, based on "reading up" both in the poets themselves and in the writings of other critics a type of production which every college instructor knows well, and which he should surely honor when it is well done. They are, however, lacking in the flashes of insight that characterize the work of the great critics, ...and they have little of the personal quality of Lowell's essays. The author sometimes shows erratic appreciations, as when he ranks Lord's turgid lines "On the Defeat of a Great Man" with Whittier's "Ichabod. " Often the breadth of his reading in preparation for a paper leads him to give oddly incongruous lists, as: "Bascom and Ruskin follow Mill"; "Browning, Banville, Whitman, Emerson. " Notwith- standing these peculiarities his critical writings are solid, and not to be ignored by any student of the subjects which he treats.
