What reading level is Great Possessions book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If I had the true business spirit I should have gone by thebeaten road from my house to Horace's, borrowed the singletree I wentfor, and hurried straight home. Life is so short when one is afterdollars! I should not have wallowed through the snow, nor stopped at thetop of the hill to look for a moment across the beautiful wintryearth--gray sky and bare wild trees and frosted farmsteads with homelysmoke rising from the chimneys--I should merely have brought home asingletree--and missed the glory... of life! As I reflect upon it now, Ibelieve it took me no longer to go by the fields than by the road; andI've got the singletree as securely with me as though I had not lookedupon the beauty of the eternal hills, nor reflected, as I tramped, uponthe strange ways of man.
Oh, my friend, is it the settled rule of life that we are to acceptnothing not expensive? It is not so settled for me; that which isfreest, cheapest, seems somehow more valuable than anything I pay for;that which is given better than that which is bought; that which passesbetween you and me in the glance of an eye, a touch of the hand, isbetter than minted money!
