What reading level is Englands Effort Letters to An American Friend book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A month after the first factory was opened, the Government asked for another — for larger 84. ENGLAND'S EFFORT shell. It was begun in August, and was in work in a few weeks. In September a still larger factory — for still larger shells — (how these demands illustrate the course of the war! — ^how they are themselves illustrated by the history of Verdun!) was seen to be necessarj''. It was begun in September, and is now run- ning. Almost all the machines used in the fac- tory have been made in t...he town itself, and about 100 small firms, making shell parts — fuses, primers, gaines, etc. — have been grouped round the main firm, and are every day sending in their work to the factory to be tested, put together, and delivered.
No factory made a better impression upon me than this one. The large, airy building with its cheerful lighting; the girls in their dark-blue caps and overalls, their long and comely lines reminding one of some proces- sional effect in a Florentine picture; the high proportion of good looks, even of delicate beauty, among them; the upper galleries with their tables piled with glittering brasswork, ENGLAND'S EFFORT 85 amid which move the quick, trained hands of the women — if one could have forgotten for a moment the meaning of it all, one might have applied to it Carlyle's description of a great school, as "a temple of industrious peace.
