What reading level is A New England Childhood book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Surrounded by Henry's reminiscences of his praying relations, he decided that silent prayer was the better part of valor.
Henry likewise closed his eyes. They sat, face to face, with lids screwed tight, and lips moving nimbly. Presently Henry said "Amen", and they both arose.
"Suppose we go below and have a snack," said the captain, and down they went, hand in hand.
The cook was hashing corned beef and cold pota- toes. He served it in the chopping bowl in which it was chopped. The crew sat arou...nd a bare table. The first thrust at the hash was reserved for the captain, because of his rank; the crew followed suit. There were not knives enough CAPTAIN MARRYAT'S MANTLE 107 to go around, but Captain Hudson gave Henry a knife, because Henry was his guest. Captain Hudson left the fork to the bo'swain, and the bo'- swain spiked the hash well enough by the help of thumb and forefinger. Henry noted that each seaman, when waiting for a chance at the dish, sat with his knife grasped midway between hilt and blade and with the hilt planted upright on the greasy boards; so he did likewise, bringing his knife down with a manly vigor that made the wood resound.
