What reading level is Ancestors book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This may be because of the people I was surrounded with as a child. When they used my name, or my brother’s, or for that matter one another’s, it was almost always with affection, which somehow rubbed off on the name itself. William Maxwell—to hold it off at arm’s length—is not a common name and neither is it exactly uncommon. It turns up in the Waverley novels, in Scottish and English and American history, in the juvenilia of Charlotte Brontë, in all sorts of places. When Boswell has supper wit...h his cousin, Sir William Maxwell, at Howell’s in Half Moon Street, I know that it is not me, that it has nothing to do with me, but, irrationally, I am pleased.
Or perhaps the real reason I like my name is that it is Scottish. When I was six years old my mother took me to Bloomington, thirty miles away, to hear Harry Lauder. And when we arrived at the theater there were two bagpipers—huge men, over six feet—in kilts, walking up and down and making those squealing noises and my heart began to pound with excitement.
