What reading level is The Grand Canyon of Arizona book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are still a limited number of very fine blankets made. The number is governed largely by the demand.
In the original or natural colors there are white, brown, NAVAHO AND HOPI BLANKET WEAVERS 135 gray and black; the latter rather a grayish black, or better still, as Mathews describes it, " rusty." Many of the best blankets now produced are of these natural colors, with sometimes a touch of red.
There are certain Navaho blankets much sought after by the collector, especially those rare old ...specimens made of purely native dye, the colors of which have softened into har- monious tones. These have not been made for many years past and most of the specimens in perfect state of preserva- tion that are in existence were obtained from Mexican families where they had been handed down from genera- tion to generation as heirlooms. Often in these old speci- mens the red figures were made of bayeta. As Mason says: " The word * bayeta ' is nothing but the simple Spanish for the English ' baize ' and is spelled ' bayeta ' and not * balleta ' or ' valeta.' " Formerly bayeta was a regular article of commerce.
