What reading level is Indians of the Webutuck Valley book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
How the squaws must have run, with papooses bobbing on their shoulders, to get a nearer view. The fisherman must have dropped his bone spear ; the hunter slung his bow with slackened thong; and no doubt the old arrow maker, in the village behind the spring here, just in the rear of the house, dropped for once his nugget of horn blend and curious tools and ran to the bank of the stream to gaze upon the wondrous spectacle.
But the strange vision vanished as quickly as it had come. The Indians' ha...ppy respite continued; it may have been still a few years before he saw another white face. But the white faces appeared at last, and thickly enough. The reign of the Indian was soon over.
His history is not written — very little of it pertain- ing to this locality remains in tradition. Some of the old men of my boyhood used to tell me of the times when the Indians still followed the stream on their fishing excursions, mingling peacefully with the white inhabitants; and in the spring time they were sure to come along with their win- ters' work of baskets for sale.
