What reading level is A Second Walk Through Wales book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Pennant, has written so much and so ably relative to Chester, as to leave little to be gleaned by any other person on the subject. Let me, therefore, recommend his volumes to your perusal, for the particulars of its history and antiquities. A few scattered remarks on its present state, population, and trade, are all I can venture to offer.
* Pennant's Welsh Tour, vol. I. P. 108.
[ 236 ] The population of Chester is about sixteen thousand, * and the number of houses four thousand. A spirit of im...provement, with re- spet to its gates and buildings, arose about thirty years ago, and continued till the year 1792, (during which period about two hundred houses were ere&ed) when it suddenly stopped, and has not since been revived. One excep- tion, however, to this stagnation of architectu- ral improvements must not be forgotten, the new county gaol, a stupendous stone edifice, constructed on an admirable plan, and esti- mated to cost the county eighty thousand pounds. Enormous as the sum is, however, Cheshire is equal to the discharge of it, with- out entailing any burthen on its inhabitants; since the fund from which these expences are defrayed, is nearly inexhaustible.
