What reading level is The Legacy of An Octogenarian book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" But, " asks one who is as poor as any of us, " am I to eat the leavings of others? I will have something fresh every day as long as I can get it. " Very well. But what are leavings? He would be an extraordinary provider who could so gauge the appetites of a household that every meal would prove an exact pattern, the "full-belly- and-empty platter " measure being beyond the skill of most caterers. In our liberal way of providing there is often as much left as consumed. And why is not the remai...nder as good as the portion consumed ? If it is a little stale, it goes to the fire again, and fire is a great restorer and purifier, if purification is needed.
In the old countries whatever is left is reserved, in some new form perhaps ; nothing is lost through false pride or poverty-tending pampering of appe- tite. Soups are a great save-all, and it would prove a blessing to our people if they could more fre- quently be seen upon our tables. But soups are not the only way in which remnants of food may be rendered available, as every thrifty housewife well knows.
