To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Until this station is reached the track lies along the eastern slope of the deep valley. Far below, running beside and across the winding old wagon road, flows the Stony Clove Creek, with its cascades and mills here and there, and a little church, a school or a cottage at intervals along its banks. On either side are towering mountains with craggy crests far up in the sky. Looking back from the train you see nothing but mountains, and vou can neither discern nor imagine where you came through. ...A charming variety of wild flowers, ferns, trailing vines and shrubbery fringe the wayside, and fill the air with wildwood fragrance. Indeed, this whole mountain region abounds with interest to the lover of plants and wild flowers. The mountain laurel {kabjiia lati/olia) is quite at home here, and may be found in abundance and in great beauty, nearly all summer in bloom, at first in the valleys and on ihe lower slopes and later on the mountain tops. Then there are clematis, ferns, honeysuckles, eupatorium, saracenias, Indian pipe, daisies and an endless variety or other species of plants.
