What reading level is The Europe That Was book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The fenders crackled and creaked. Capstans, spurting steam, chugged into their ragtime rhythm. The discharge gang swarmed over her, like hungry flies on an overweighted beast of burden.
She had to be emptied that day, for she carried a perishable cargo of crated Canary bananas. The dockers tore it out of her, racing against the fresh heat of the early morning. They were dressed so much alike that they gave the impression of a squad of soldiers; black boina on the head, wide red sash at the waist..., blue trousers and rope sandals. Only in their shirts was there variety; they were of many shades of blue, mauve, yellow and green.
Apart from the bustle around the Capitan Segarra the riverside was still. It was a public holiday. The ships moored stem to stern along the wharf were dressed with flags. Here and there a watchman sat under the shade of a tarpaulin contentedly occupied with the rolling of one cigarette after another. The three txistulari marched along the waterfront—a drummer, a piper, and between them the leader of the band playing a drum with one hand and holding a pipe to his mouth with the other.
