What reading level is From a Cornish Window book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Already there are signs of it--pitiable signs; Not many months ago I visited Tintagel, which is justly one of the prides of the Duchy. The 'swinging seas' are breaking against the great cliffs as they broke there centuries ago when Arthur and Launcelot and the Knights of the Round Table peopled the place. The castle is mostly crumbled away now, but some fraction of its old strength still stands to face the Atlantic gales, and to show us how walls were built in the grand old days. In the valley ...the grass is green and the gorse is yellow, and overhead the skies are blue and delightful: but facing Arthur's Castle--grinning down, as it were, in derision--there is being erected a modern hotel--'built in imitation of Arthur's Castle, ' as one is told! . . . There is not yet a rubbish shoot over the edge of the cliff, but I do not think I am wrong in stating that the drainage is brought down into that cove where long ago (the story runs) the naked baby Arthur came ashore on the great wave!" In summing up the discussion I confess with shame that I temporised.
