What reading level is Old Times At Otterbourne book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some inns dressed their post-boys in light blue jackets, some inyellow ones, according to their politics, but the shape was always thesame; corduroy tights, top boots, and generally white (or rather drab-coloured) hats. It used to be an amusement to watch whether the post-boywould be a blue or a yellow one at each fresh stage. Hardly any oneknows what a post-boy was like now, far less an old-fashioned travellingcarriage or chariot and its boxes.
The travelling carriage was generally yellow. It ...had two good seatsinside, and a double one had a second seat, where two persons satbackwards. The cushion behind lifted up and disclosed a long narrowrecess called the swordcase, because, when there were highwaymen on theroads, people kept their weapons there. There were sometimes two, sometimes one seat outside, called the box and the dickey--much thepleasantest places, for it was very easy to feel sick and giddy inside. Acurved splashboard went up from the bottom of the chariot to a level withthe window, and within it fitted what was called the cap box, with acurved bottom, so that when in a house it had to be set down in a frameto hold it upright.
