What reading level is Elizabeth Fisher Gordon : Oral History Project [1982] book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
JW: Did you happen to attend Cogswell because it was...
How did you happen to go to that particular high school?
EG: My father made the decision about where we went. And my father felt that a girl should know how to sew, and and she should know how to cook. In addition to knowing general education — she should also be equipped with those things. In other words, he believed like the Teacher's Creed: "Lessons taught not so much by precept as by example, and the ability to work with the hands as w...ell as to think with the head." He didn't know that Teacher's Creed but this is what he felt himself. But I learned it... In going to Normal I learned the Creed, and that's the Creed: "Ability to think with the head as well as work with the hands." And he had that theory long before I ever found out about it. And this is why... they didn't believe in necessarily a woman working. I guess, a wife doesn't work, you know. So it wasn't with the idea that I was going to school to learn how to get a job.
