What reading level is The Gallop book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And the strides of the horses with which I made my experiments for obtaining the footprints in the sand were shorter than those of the cantering horse in Mr. Muybridge's photographs.
20 THE GALLOP.
In the canter, the action is so low and weak that a fore- foot is planted before the second hind-foot reaches the ground (see Plate II. ). The rising of the fore-hand as the horse takes the weight, from the leap, upon the hind- leg is hardly perceptible, and the fore-hand drops almost at that moment.... 1 It has four irregular beats, and in the middle of each cadence there is a sensation to the rider of settling back. It is impossible to make the changes of lead in such a pace, nor could the rapid turns of the gallop be accomplished by a cantering horse.
The gallop is a pace of three beats, the pauses regu- larly observed, and the intervals between the beats even as are those between each cadence ; the sensation of motion is always forward. At each stride, as the horse takes his weight upon the hind-leg, from the leap, the fore-hand rises, and the changes of lead or the quick turns may be readily effected.
