What reading level is Nova Scotia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Commonly known as rum-running, the business was at once illegal, glamorous and respectable in many ports on the Soulth Shore and along the Bay of Fundy. Rum-running was motivated by more than mere opportunism, I might argue, for booze – rum, in particular – has played a meaningful role in shaping Nova Scotia.
In fact, rum had been popular in this province for well over 300 years. Rum had been on hand with the earliest naval expeditions and had remained an integral part of the daily life of the E...nglish and Canadian navy men anchored in Halifax Harbour or having their fun ashore.
The beverage that was once viewed on these shores as a kind of medicinal and social luxury evolved into a necessity and over the years created economic prosperity, cultural identity and social havoc. When the legendary dBluenose would finally meet her fate in 1946, appropriately enough, a good portion of her cargo would be rum.
Nova Scotian rum historian James Moreira, in Tempered by Rum, goes so far as to suggest of rum that “It has made and lost fortunes; it has won and lost elections; it has fuelled riots and provided comfort in the wake of disaster; it has been a factor in rebellion and, by not completely patriotic means, it has even been a source of loyalty.”
