What reading level is A History of American Literature Since 1870 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The little piper will some- times climb a bullrush to which he clings like a sailor to a mast, and send forth his shrill call. There is a Southern species, heard when 3'ou have reached the Potomac, whose note is far more harsh and crackling. To stand on the verge of a swamp vocal with these, pains and stuns the ear.
Then in a foot-note : The Southern species is called the green hyla. I have since heard them in my neighborhood on the Hudson.
Never was there writer who kept his feet more firmly o...n solid earth. He takes nothing for granted; he is satisfied only with the testimony of the senses, and his o^vn senses. Everything — example, allusion, figure of speech, subject and predicate — comes from him in the concrete. Everything is specific, localized, dated. He was in accord with his era that demanded only re- ality. It is the task of the writer, he declared, "to pierce through our callousness and indifference and give us fresh impressions of things as they really are." How permanent is such work?
