What reading level is Upland Pastures book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
56 The second joint tapers. The feathers are long and do not overlap so closely as do those of the first joint, and at the free ends they spread out and turn upwards. The upper surface of the wing is convex, the lower sur face concave. In flying the wings are thrown forward and downward. Flying is not a flap ping of the wings up and down, and if a bird were to strike its wings backward and down ward, as its manner of flight is so often pic tured, it would turn a forward somersault in the air. S...tructurally the wing of a bird is a screw. It twists in opposite directions during the up and down strokes, and describes a figure of 8 in the air. The bird throws its wings for wards and downwards. The air is forced back and compressed in the cup-shaped hollows of the wings, and these latter, by the recoil thus obtained, drag the body forward. This resist ance of the air is absolutely essential to flight. We who think that, but for the buffetings of hard fate, we, too, might soar high and fly free in the upper realm of endeavor, should watch the efforts of the birds in a calm.
