What reading level is Bacons Descriptive Handbook of America book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Missouri produces more than 45 per cent, of the hemp of the United States. Fruit culture is one of the most lucrative branches of industry ; the mulberry tree grows wild and is very hardy. Like many other sources of wealth in Missouri, the pine forests still remain in their primeval solitude, waiting the hand of intelligent industry and enterprise to develop their wealth and turn them to account. There are millions of acres of land in the southern and south-eastern portion of the State covered ...with a growth of yellow or hard pine, equal to that of any other region. From these turpentine, resin, and tar, can be profitably made ; about 50, 000 dollars' worth was made during the year 1865. The soil in the central and southern portion is all that could be desired for the culture of the grape, which has already been greatly developed ; the yield since 1849 being about 250 gallons per acre, worth on an average one dollar and a half per gallon. It is reckoned that at least 15, 000, 000 of acres are suitable both as regards soil and climate, for grape cultivation, or about three times as many as are taken up by the vineyards of France.
