What reading level is The Record of An Adventurous Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Streams of rushing water ran down the streets on both sides; the houses were all pretty and all comfortable; there were no poor, no vicious class, and, as far as I saw, no drunkenness or debauchery outside of the handful of " gentiles" who came there in connection with the mines established by European companies. The drawbacks to Mormonism and its polygamy have often been insisted upon, and nobody could fail to see the rough and vulgar brutality of Brigham Young with his seventy-two wives, or t...o note the salacious propensities of some of the wealthy elders who surrounded his successor. But, speaking only of what I myself saw, I can say most decidedly that I never was in a community in my life where, in spite of the great wealth of a handful of the rulers, the mass of the people were so well-to-do and healthy as they were among these Mormons. The religion of the prophet Smith lends itself easily to ridicule. The lives of even the richest of the Mormons were not conducted on the lines of the highest culture.
