What reading level is The Quadroon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A few years ago, the French and American populations were about equal. Now the Saxon element predominates, and rapidly absorbs all the others. In time the indolent Creole must yield to the more energetic American--in other words, New Orleans will be Americanised. Progress andcivilisation will gain by this, at the expense--according to thesentimental school--of the poetic and picturesque.
Two distinct cities, then, are there in New Orleans. Each has itsExchange distinct from the other--a distinc...t municipal court and publicoffices--each has its centre of fashionable resort--its favouritepromenade for the _flaneurs_, of which the South-western metropolis canboast a large crowd--its own theatres, ballrooms, hotels, and cafes. Infact, a walk of a few paces transports one into quite a different world. The crossing of Canal Street is like being transferred from Broadway tothe Boulevards.
In their occupations there is a wide difference between the inhabitantsof the two quarters. The Americans deal in the strong staples of humanlife.
