What reading level is Allotments for All the Story of a Great Movement book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Nor could it reasonably be asserted that his object was the purely selfish one of augmenting his income by growing his own food, instead of buying it. No ! The root of the matter was simply this : that, as a human being unnaturally separated from the land, he felt subcon- sciously that nothing, save actual contact with it, could give him that indefinable sensation of satisfaction and restful contentment which the union of man and land alone can bring. In the Borough of Islington, within a few... yards of Penton- ville Prison, a small piece of land was recently allotted to four men, none of whom had previously had any experience of gardening. The soil was not more than two feet deep in the best part, and was of a bad gravelly nature. A brick wall surrounded the enclosure, and in summer the broiling heat of the sun and the odour from an adjoining tripe factory combined to create an almost intolerable atmosphere. The soil what there was of it formed a covering for a railway tunnel a circumstance which in times of drought did not improve matters.
