What reading level is The Best American Humorous Short Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I know, indeed, that public men of the highest rank have resorted tothis expedient long ago. Dumas's novel of _The Iron Mask_ turns on thebrutal imprisonment of Louis the Fourteenth's double. There seemslittle doubt, in our own history, that it was the real General Piercewho shed tears when the delegate from Lawrence explained to him thesufferings of the people there--and only General Pierce's double whohad given the orders for the assault on that town, which was invadedthe next day. My charmin...g friend, George Withers, has, I am almostsure, a double, who preaches his afternoon sermons for him. This isthe reason that the theology often varies so from that of theforenoon. But that double is almost as charming as the original. Someof the most well-defined men, who stand out most prominently on thebackground of history, are in this way stereoscopic men; who owe theirdistinct relief to the slight differences between the doubles. Allthis I know. My present suggestion is simply the great extension ofthe system, so that all public machine-work may be done by it.
