What reading level is A Library of American Literature, From the Earliest Settlement to the Present Time book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They sent an Indian to tell us that Mommenoteck was found, and would appear before us suddenly.
This brought us to a new stand the space of an hour more. There came a third Indian persuading us to have a little further patience, and he would not tarry, for he had assembled the body of the Pequeats to- gether, to know who the parties were that had slain these Englishmen.
But seeing that they did in this interim convey away their wives and children, and bury their chiefest goods, we perceived at ...length they would fly from us ; but we were patient and bore with them, in expec- tation to have the greater blow upon them. The last messenger brought us this intelligence from the sachem, that if we would but lay down our arms, and approach about thirty paces from them, and meet the heathen prince, he would cause his men to do the like, and then we shall come to a parley.
But we seeing their drift was to get our arms, we rather chose to beat up the drum and bid them battle. Marching into a champaign field, we displayed our colors; but none would come near us, but, standing remotely off, did laugh at us for our patience.
