What reading level is Francis Parkman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"The completion of this history, " said the New York Times, "is an event that should awaken interest wherever historical genius can be appreciated. Since Prescott, Motley, and Bancroft, Francis Parkman alone has thoroughly sustained American reputation in this field. He has not only sustained, but has measurably increased that reputation, for his work ranks with the most brilliant and lasting historical undertak- ings that have marked the past fifty years. The charm of his narrative is not grea...ter than his scholarship, the rare im- portance of his theme not greater than the sustained interest with which he has carried it forward to completion. " "We doubt not, " said the Atlantic Monthly, "that we express the feeling of the whole English-speaking world of literature when we congratulate the author upon the comple- tion of the imperishable monument which commemorates his own noble endeavor and the glory of the race to which he belongs. It is rare indeed that a literary project conceived in youth is so comprehensive in its character, and is pursued so steadfastly to its final achievement after nearly fifty years of toil, under discouragements of physical privation induced by the very devotion which led the young author at the outset to turn his back upon civilized life, and to cast in his lot for a time with the race whose ancestors bore so conspicuous a part in the history which he was to unfold.
