What reading level is A Western City of Learning book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This slope will enable an educational city to be laid out with the effect of one superb composition, visible in all its overpowering entirety. The whole mass will culminate in the observatory, as the World's Fair did in the Admin- istration Building, but the designers of the White City, with their level site, obviously had no such opportunity as the bold upward sweep at Berkeley will give to the artist who creates the home of the new Californian uni- versity.
It is expected that the new buildin...gs will be construct- ed of stone and marble, in the most solid and enduring fashion. There will be no shams or makeshifts any- where.
The grounds will be treated as an integral part of the architectural composition. It is believed that water ef- fects will play an important part in the scheme, as they did at the World's Fair, and here again the City of Learn- ing at Berkeley will have a marked advantage over the White City at Chicago. Instead of being confined to fountains and still lagoons for their aquatic pictures, the designers of the new university can add cascades, shaded glens, and rushing streams.
