What reading level is Memorials of Dixie Land Orations Essays Sketches And Poems On Topics Histori book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Ten years ago I stood upon the Capitoline hill at Rome and with reverent gaze beheld the eternal city of the Caesar s. It was the dream of a life-time come to pass. There rippling at my feet rolled the tawny Tiber; and before my eyes in a splendid pageant moved the panorama of her, vanished days. I thought of the divine poets who had sung of her renown to distant ages and of the con quering legions who had planted her victorious eagles among the eagles of the Alps. I tried to picture her, in he...r imperial pomp when she "sat upon her seven hills and from her throne of beauty ruled the world. " But all of her seven hills combined had no such power to stir me as dwells in the magic of this single hill among the hills of Georgia.
To be a Roman in that elder day conferred more honor than to be a king; but there was then no Georgia on the map. Italy may hold the inverted heavens in her limpid lakes ; and Switzerland may wear the stars upon her pearly peaks; but no other spot for me while Georgia spreads her robe of green from the cedars to the sea.
