What reading level is Reclaiming the Old House : Its Modern Problems And Their Solution As Governed By the Methods of Its Builders book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Unless, perhaps, one is restoring the wainscot, in which case the paneled form may have a rail provided. True wainscot, as we all know, runs to the ceiling.
As the earmark of antiquity is denoted by the general scarcity of metal work, there is much chance for crude forms in wood. Shelf brackets and the like should be made; also door buttons and pulls. If one is handy with tools, there is a chance for him here, but be sure to let the marks of the jack-knife show; do not sand-paper it all out.
Ha...ving supplied a place for our little vanity in old china, pewter and glass, the next thing is to display it. We may add that such should rarely be done on the mantel. Perhaps it is very like suggesting that one sleeps after retiring, but we must inflict the advice. Choose good specimens and not too many and let their arrangement be a composition, in which the placing is neither too crowded nor too open. Remember, that as one goes back, the average condition becomes simpler and simpler; there were very few utensils in the oldest houses.
