What reading level is The Freedom of the Fields book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To most of us he was, and will always be, an enigma, and the more so, in that petty spite on the part of greatness strove to misrepresent him. In face of such conditions do we " knock our- selves down, " as a writer recently said in pointing out the arrogance of one critic who presumed too much when he essayed to com- ment on such a subject. Even a professional critic can get beyond his depth, and Lowell got far beyond his, and, worse than mere failure, he seems to have forgotten an earlier ess...ay full of praise, and in the later screed failed to conceal the true animus that moved him. But all is well : Thoreau, the lover of solitude, the sane egotist, fills our lives more and more, and leads us to a better con- ception of the world about us.
OVERDOING THE PAST ARE we not overdoing history and neg- lefting the present moment? Peri- odical literature is overflowing with dilu- tions, more or less weak, of the elaborate biographies of great men. There is no time allowed us to consider the living present because of the claims of a dead past.
