What reading level is The Travels And Adventures of Celebrated Travelers in the Principal Countries of the Globe book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Out -of its whole population, not a hundred but can read. The singular prosperity and intelligence of the people has been ascribed to an old law, that no citizen should own over one bundred and* sixty acres I The effect was that none became very rich, and none felt the stings of poverty. No grasping speculators could monopolise the land, and general comfort and contentment pervaded. Every purchase, to be legal, had to be registered by the town clerk in a book, where the amount each owned was pl...aced against his name. If a person inherited more than bis share the excess fell to the city. Again, the inhabitants, as indeed is common in Hungary, fed all their cattle, and raised their vines in common.
In the spring, the cattle and swine, properly marked, were driven on to the Pussta, there tended by men hired for the purpose. The vineyard was one common field, cultivated by vine-dressers hired by those who owned its dif- ferent parts.
The people appeared to Mr. Brace singularly courteous and polite.
