What reading level is American Sketches book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

This incident symbolises very aptlythe attitude of America. The country has not yet recovered from thehostility which it once professed to George III. It assumes that adifference of policy always implies a moral taint. The American Coloniesbroke away from the mother country; therefore George III. Was a knave, whose name may not be mentioned without dishonour, and all the brave menwho served him in serving the colonies are dishonoured also. It is notquite clear why this feeling has been kept ali...ve so long. Perhapsthe violent rhetoric of the Declaration of Independence has aided itssurvival. Perhaps, too, the sense of gravity, which always overtakes theAmerican public man when he considers what These States have achieved, is not without its weight. But whatever the cause, it is certain thatshame and animosity still exist on the other side of the ocean: shamefor noble deeds accomplished by brave men; animosity against a loyalantagonist, who long ago forgot the ancient quarrel and its consequence.
