What reading level is Gleanings in Old Garden Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" But the truth is that the graphic portion of the volume is merely a series of foreign prints, Dutch or German, utilised to lend an additional attraction to the English publi- cation, though it is at the same time likely enough that our own implements and those of Germany and Holland were almost identi- cal ; and in fact, not merely the illustrations, but the text of Stevenson, are largely borrowed from Breton's Fantastics (1626). From a fifteenth-century MS. Of Bartholo- meus De Proprietatibu...s Rerum, it is inferable that some system was known and employed of training fruit-trees in the espalier mode now so familiar ; it was a word derived from the old French espauk. A very fair general notion of the policy and taste of our ancestors, a couple of cen- turies since, in laying out their grounds and gardens, according to their respective means, is derivable from such works as Les Delices de la Grande Bretagne, and from the illustrations to some of the treatises on 156 Gleanings in Old Garden Literature.
