What reading level is Handbook to the New Gold-Fields book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In fact, thisvast stretch of country is one continuous pine forest. From the shore, where the trees dip into the sea, back to the verge of the distanthorizon, over hills, down valleys, across ravines, and on and around thesides and tops of mountains, it is one great waving panorama of forestscenery. Timber--enough to supply the wants of the world for ages, onewould think. Yet the broken character of the country relieves the scenefrom monotony, and it fully realises the idea of the grand and the...beautiful combined. One spot in particular made an impression upon mewhich I wish I had the power to convey by words. Between Cape Mendocinaand Humboldt Bay, on the northern limits of California, a grandcollection of hills and mountains of every variety of size, shape, andform occurs. This grand group recedes in a gentle sweep from the coastfar inland, where it terminates in a high conical mountain, overtoppingthe entire mass of pinnacles which cluster around it. The whole is wellclothed with trees of that feathery and graceful foliage peculiar to thespruce and larch, and interspersed with huge round clumps of evergreens, with alternations of long glades and great open patches of lawn coveredwith rich grass of that bright emerald green peculiar to California.
