What reading level is Hidden Ontario book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Marmora is a town and a township, named to commemorate that rock. Marmora is the latin plural for “marble.” Thirty miles north of the city of Belleville is the site of Ontario’s first mining operation. It was Charles Hayes, along with his wife, who set sail from Ireland in 1820 to follow a dream. The dream was to establish the first ironworks in Upper Canada and become the first industrialist in this new land. Hayes and his wife docked in New York before travelling up the Hudson River and the Mo...hawk Valley to Sacketts Harbour. From there they voyaged to Montreal to meet with Peter McGill, a financier, and then went on to Kingston, Ontario. The Hayes left Kingston and proceeded northwest until they came to a narrows in the Crowe River, about 160 kilometres (100 miles) hence. It was here that this entrepreneur eventually built the first company town in Upper Canada. It was a formidable task when you consider that Hayes had been a linen merchant back home, albeit a successful one. He was to start the first wave of industrialism, but not the last.
