What reading level is Forty Odd Years in the Literary Shop book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Directly over the way was the Windsor, the first of what might be called the ''neighborhood houses" of the sort now found on the "subway circuit, " by which I mean theatres in which pieces that had had their run on Broadway were given 152 FORTY-ODD YEARS at reduced prices. Originally the Stadt Theatre, it had introduced many fine German artists to New York and it was here that Wachtel, the tenor of "high C" reputa- tion — he introduced that note with sensational results into ''Di quella pira" i...n II Trovatore — was discovered by Mapleson and engaged for the Academy of Music.
The Thalia was now introducing many German oper- ettas and it was a source of supply to Mr. Daly, so it occurred to me that by judicious press work American as well as German playgoers could be attracted. I ap- plied for the position of press-agent and during two seasons combined the duties of that office with my other work. It was a useful and interesting experience which I always recall with pleasure. Carl Herrmann, an ex- officer of the Austrian service, who had come to this country after killing his superior officer in a duel, was manager of the house, and Heinrich Conreid, a graduate of the famous company maintained by the Duke of Saxe-Meiningen, was the stage-manager and it was I who gave him his earliest notoriety.
