What reading level is European Acquaintance: book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As the hour-hand of a mantel-clock verged toward one, hungry patients filed in to the number of three or four dozen, and presently a short, stupid waiter (who twice afterward basted my coat with gravy) invited us, in horrible Alsatian French, to enter the dining-hall. Sailing in quietly and decent- ly, we halted with our faces to a long table, like a shoal of well-behaved fishes with their noses to the bait.
D 74 EUKOPEAN ACQUAINTANCE.
Being the last comer, I was seated very near the lower end,... between a short, yellow-headed Swiss, and a tall, black-headed Frenchman. The dinner was excellent, and I felt that I was in a civilized country, where I need have no fears, as at Graefenberg, lest the next dish should be boiled gentleman and lady. The knives and forks rattled cheerfully, but not boisterously, and above all rose a courteous mirthfulness of French talk and laughter.
Before reaching Divonne I had made the resolution to speak French there, or perish in the attempt. I commenced on my yellow-haired comrade, who seem- ed glad of the provocation, and bombarded me for the space of an hour with a whole arsenal of unintelligible questions and observations.
