What reading level is Inexpensive Homes of Individuality book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If he be a man of quiet tastes, fond of home life, not given to lavish entertainments, those qualities should be expressed by a restrained, a modest domestic feeling in the treatment of the house, that it is almost impossible to express in certain well-marked historic styles. The minor English buildings, the farmhouses of Normandy, even our own Colonial houses, offer starting points for such a case. But, granted that the man be a millionaire, with an established position in society, or even wit...h aspirations for it, his house must be a far different affair, suitably planned for entertaining many people, and expressed in some formal, well digested style such as that of Louis XVI. Indeed the selection of a style suitable 'for a million-dollar "cottage" at Newport is far less difficult than the finding of the right expression for a suburban home of moderate size. The owner's training, his inclinations, too, must not be forgotten. A man with a well-marked bias in favor of all French things, would naturally choose one of the French styles for his house.
