What reading level is Visions And Memories; California, Nineteen Hundred & Fifteen book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At one time an earthen vessel was found containing Moorish coins and the skeleton of a cock, which, according to the opinion of certain shrewd in- spectors, must have been buried alive. At another time a vessel was dug up containing a great scarabceus or beetle of baked clay, covered with Arabic inscriptions, which was pro- nounced a prodigious amulet of occult virtues. In this way the wits of the ragged brood who inhabit the Alhambra have been set wool-gathering, until there is not a .hall, no...r tower, nor vault, of the old fortress, that has not been made the scene of some marvellous tradition. Having, I trust, in the preceding papers made the reader in some degree familiar with the localities of the Alhambra, I shall now launch out more largely into the wonderful legends connected with it, and which I have diligently wrought into shape and form, from various legendary scraps and hints picked up in the course of my perambulations, — in the same manner that an antiquary works out a regular historical document from a few scattered letters of an almost defaced inscription.
