What reading level is The Trees At Mount Vernon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
HORSE-CHESTNUTS— There are three Horse-chestnut-trees {Mscu- lus Ilippocaslanum) at Mount Vernon. Two of them, Nos. 116 and 117, in the rear of the Springhouse, are young trees. No. 116 being 42 feet tall with a trunk 1 foot in diameter, and No. 117 only 20 feet tall with a trunk 8 inches in diameter. The third of these trees, No. 46, is between the Serpentine Walk and the Kitchen Garden and is 55 feet tall with a trunk 1 foot 8 inches in diameter. This tree is overshadowed by an Ash- tree and ...evidently has grown slowly. On April 13, 1785, Washington entered in his Diary the fact that he was planting four Horse-chestnuts along Serpentine Walks, and it is possible, although hardly probable, that No. 46 is one of the trees planted by him.
ELMS — There are now ten American Elm-trees (Ulmus americana) standing in the neighborhood of the Mansion. Of these No. 1 is a young tree only 32 feet tall with a trunk 1 foot in diameter; No. 36 is also a young tree only 23 feet tall with a trunk 5 inches in diameter.
