What reading level is Wordcatcher book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After the custom in the Roman army to pay a portion of the wages to its legionnaires in the form of a daily handful of salt, salarium, from the Latin sal, an allotment known as their “salt allowance.” For the salt-crazed Romans, who constructed their towns near salt supplies and fought wars to protect them, salary came to mean wages in general. Look it up and you’ll discover the phrases “salt away,” an echo of storing salt as some might stuff their pillows with cash, “worth his salt,” for someon...e who has earned what he’s been paid, and “salt of the earth,” an unaffected, natural person. The Via Salaria was the first imperial road built, to convey salt from the port of Ostia. The Roman Pliny wrote in the 31st volume of his Natural History, “[In] Rome … the soldier’s pay was originally salt and the word salary derives from it …” Regarding the money she made as a writer, Dorothy Parker said, “Salary is no object; I want only enough to keep body and soul apart.”
