What reading level is San Francisco West Coast Metropolis book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. " 29 NOB HILL The Big Four Crocker, Huntington, Stanford and Hopkins made Not) Hill what it is and, involuntarily, gave it its name. They were the kings of California in their day and were admired and resented as such. According to different versions, the name of the hill is a contraction from either "Snob Hill" or "Nabob Hill. " In the effulgent fashion of their time, the "Nabobs" built mansions large enough to serve as barracks, elaborate enough to turn the stomach of a Maharajah. Unhappily..., the disaster of 1906 had no respect for kings and millionaires. All that is left of these proud palaces is the tradition which still makes Nob Hill the swankiest and most expensive place to live. A modern hotel also very -very bearing Mark Hopkins' name, stands on the site of Mrs. Hopkins' dream of glory.
30 POTRERO Potrero Hill is the reverse of Nob Hill. With a view of the city second only to the panorama from Twin Peaks, it is unfamiliar to San Francisco's upper crust. It is the hill of little people, not a boarding house district like the Mission, but rather the location where small home owners shipyard workers, waterfront workers, and factory workers raise chickens and hang up their laundry against a magnificent backdrop.
