What reading level is American Myths Legends volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Rumor said he had studied chemistry, and in his native vil- lage had been known to work far into the night — a fearful thing in itself, where righteous peo- ple were abed by nine, and doubly fearful when the work was associated with blue lights seen through chinks in the blind, evil smells, and uncanny noises. He did not deny the rumor; he was complacent under its imputations when it 237 American Myths and Legends followed him to Morristown, and it cannot be doubted that it raised him in the re...gard of many burghers in that village when he chose it as his place of abode in 1788. For the jar of the late war had hardly driven out of mind the evil doings of Mother Meechum, the witch, and should her successor appear, why, here was safety in a man who could exorcise in college Latin, and could draw the true figure of Solo- mon's seal on the earth before a stable when the cows were possessed with devils. Mother Mee- chum, having a compact with the powers of iniquity, might have lived like a queen, but it betokens the vulgar nature of witches that they ask nothing in return for their souls but the knack of keeping butter from coming in the churn, of breaking sheep's legs as they lie in the fold, of spreading sickness among cattle, and of making pigs to look in at house windows and whisper words of an unknown language.
