What reading level is From the Oak to the Olive : a Plain Record of a Pleasant Journey book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We saw little to move the cupidity of the visitor, but tried to bargain for one relic less ugly than the rest; in vain, however.
A Frenchman, not long ago, took from these ruins many valuable objects, marbles, and even jewehy ; since which time the government has strictly forbidden these Elgin thefls. The custode's domestic arrange- ments amused me more than did his museum. There was one very poor little tin, in which he boiled his cof- fee ; another, smaller and more miserable, held oil and a ...wick. He had gunpowder in a gourd. His bed was small and much dilapidated. A fragment of mat thrown upon a heap of stones was his only seat. Few beggars in America are, probably, so ill provided with the ap- pliances of life.
One of the women of the cabin I had visited followed me to the museum, and naturally held out her hand for " pende lepta." Yet beggary is very rare in Greece, and this petitioner asked in rather a shamefaced manner.
