What reading level is A Walk in the Grisons Being a Third Month in Switzerland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These conditions make in its upper parts all kinds of cultivation, except that of THE UPPER ENGADIN. 151 grass, almost impossible. I saw this day at St. Moritz, and a little above it, some few potato patches, but as in every instance the haulm of these had been killed back by recent midsummer frosts, nothing this year would be got from them but disappointment. Still I found this part of the valley surprisingly populous, for it contains what almost may be called a chain of little towns, in every... one of which are several good houses, and in not one of which is there the slightest indication of any approach to pauperism. The absence, however, of this form of wretchedness might almost have been expected, because where the winter is eight or nine months long no family can exist which has not some assured means of living. But this does not explain the well-to-do condition you must infer is the lot of many, whose substantial and neatly kept houses you see in every one of these little towns. Nature you conclude at a glance is too niggard here to maintain so many well-to-do families ; you begin then to inquire how they are maintained t Whence come their means ?
