What reading level is Famous Colonial Houses book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
To Washington it was as good at that moment as a million, for it meant pay and food for his men, a promise of more men, and supplies for a forced march. And the forced march was imminent. Rochambeau came down from his head quarters up over the hill and the two laid their plans. On the eleventh 3000 Hessians from Cornwallis forces arrived to defend New York. On August 25 all but 3000 men of the entire American army and the whole French force crossed the Hudson and were half-way to Phila delphia ...before Sir Henry Clinton knew that he had been tricked.
Two months later Cornwallis surrendered to the Allied armies, and there was no more British army between New York and Charles ton. The plan which first saw daylight in the Livingston House at Dobbs Ferry ended the Revolution.
It was poetic justice, therefore, that in this house eighteen months later should occur the formal evacuation of the United States by the British. On the afternoon of May 6, 1783, two barges landed at the Ferry. In one was George Washington, Commander-in-Chief; in the other Governor Clinton of New York State.
