What reading level is The Heart of the Alleghanies book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A fascinating solitariness pervades the picture; and this was enhanced, when we saw it, by a group of three deer, a buck and two does, which, with the antlered monarch in the lead, had just left the forest and were standing knee-deep in the icy water at some distance from our point of observation. A moment they stood there with erected heads looking toward us; and then, with quick movements, regained the nearest bank and disappeared into the wild wood. If the traveler is observant, he will noti...ce, soon after passing the ford, a long dug-out fastened to the bank at the end of a beaten path ; and between the trees see a lonely cabin on the opposite side of the river. The dug-out and a slippery ford near by, are the only links connecting the cabin's occupants with a road. The spot appears too isolated to be either pleas- ant or romantic. One of the many fish traps seen in all the mountain rivers is near this cabin. It is built, like they all are, in a shallow reach of the river. It consists of a low V shaped dam, constructed of either logs or rocks, with angle pointing down stream.
