What reading level is An Early Connecticut Engraver And His Work book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Gad Rose, " old Brunton " had en- graved a book-plate for him. He added that he supposed the family of his cousin, Oliver Rose, still had the plate; not knowing that it had already passed into Mr. Terry's hands. Oliver Rose, whose residence was at the old home- stead in West Suffield, was the son of Curtis Rose, who was the son of Gad. The style of the engraving of the word Gad shows it to be the work of another hand, and Mr. Terry makes the very reasonable guess that it was done by " uncle Har...vey " Griswold, a native of Suffield [36] , t^ Jl^ p^es EeM'Ehilo Slielton and a counterfeiter. Gad Rose for whom the plate was engraved was a farmer. He was born in 1756 and died Sept. 24, 1837, when his grandson, James B. , was twenty- one years old. Gad's wife was Annora llalc. They had ten children.
The plate of Jacob Sargeant is not only a good ex- ample of Brunton's work with the graver; but it is typical of his style of workmanship, having most of the peculiari- ties that serve to identify his work.
