What reading level is The Ancient Village book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Three hundred yards farther south stands yet — but now converted into a wagonhouse owned by ex-Sheriff Jacob Dilts — the building in which Hunt kept store, — which store, during the Revolution, was plundered by a detachment of British soldiers sent from Trenton to ascertain whether it contained silk fabric or arms or ammunition. Northeast of the old mill, and less than a half mile away, was a brass foundry, to which, to purchase brass mountings for harness, etc. , from Manhattan, Kingston, Alba...ny, and Troy, and elsewhere, came those who needed such wares; a pottery, wherein were made the best of earthen pots, dishes, etc. ; a brickyard, which supplied bricks to the earliest settlers; and Hontel Campbell's saddle tree factory, to which, in 1724, came the ap- prentice, Henry Landis, from Germantown, Pa. , to buy saddle trees for his master.
Up the road eastward, — on the north side of what is now the old drift- way, — from lands owned by John Swallow, was a line of houses in which workmen lived, and some of which were occupied by slaves — in one of which was born black Jack Gray, a well-known negro in this vicinity a few years ago.
