What reading level is Life On the Old Plantation in Ante Bellum Days Or a Story Based On Facts book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
See the boys, as they toss their hats into the air ! Hear them shout ! The victory is theirs. They are a happy set.
Supper is now ready. Long tables — well laden with good things — have been prepared. Fully two score colored women are there to wait on the table. And they eat, and eat, and drink, to their satisfaction. The supper being over, with the moon shining brightly (moon-light nights were invariably selected for corn-shuckings) the boys spend some time in wrestling, foot racing and jumpin...g before going home. And in all these games they matched one's agility, strength, and manhood against that of his fellow. This is kept up until a late hour of the night, and then they retire to the various plantations whither they belong.
Such was the corn-shucking on the old planta- tion in ante-bellum days. It was very much enjoyed by both the white folks and the slaves. The incidents and the happenings of a corn- shucking were long talked of on all the planta- tions represented. Nearly all the plantations had their corn-shuckings, and they certainly kept things lively during this season of the year in those days.
