What reading level is Familiar Spanish Travels book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We were to take the mail-train to Seville; and in Spain the _correo_is next to the Sud-Express, which is the last word in the vocabulary ofPeninsular railroading. Our _correo_ had been up all night on theway from Madrid, and our compartment had apparently been used as abedchamber, with moments of supper-room. It seemed to have been occupiedby a whole family; there were frowsy pillows crushed into the corners ofthe seats, and, though a porter caught these away, the cigar stubs, and the cigarette... ashes strewing the rug and fixed in it with variousliquids, as well as some scattering hair-pins, escaped his care. Butwhen it was dried and aired out by windows opened to the sunny weather, it was by no means a bad compartment. The broad cushions were certainlycleaner than the carpet; and it was something--it was a great deal--tobe getting out of Cordova on any terms. Not that Cordova seems at thisdistance so bad as it seemed on the ground. If we could have had thebright Monday of our departure instead of the rainy Sunday of our staythere we might have wished to stay longer.
