What reading level is Richmond in By Gone Days book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The volunteers of Hanover dared to offer resistance to the Elector of Hanover. Of this band of patriots, Henry was Captain, Meredith was Lieutenant, and Parlce Goodall Ensign ; and he was detached, with sixteen men, to demand of Eichard Corbin, the king's Eeceiver-General, the sum of three hundred and thirty pounds, in payment for the stolen powder, or in case of refusal, to make him prisoner. Mr. Corbin was not at home, but Dunmore found it prudent to order him to pay the money. This was the f...irst overt act of rehellioii in Yirginia against royal authority, and Colonel Goodall deserves to be remem- bered for his participation in it. The Swan Tavern was kept by Major Moss, who probably also served in the Eevolutionary war — this may or may not be. He also ex- hibited good breeding, good feeding, and good fellowship in his full figure and face. His house might have been called the Lincoln's Inn or Doctor's Commons of Eichmond, for there assembled, in term time, the non-resi- dent judges and lawyers, and though of unpre- tending exterior, the Swan was the tavern of highest repute for good fare, good wine, and good company.
