What reading level is Historic Towns of the Southern States book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Julian Street lost its distinctive charac- ter, and became an assembly hall for the town meeting and the militia muster ; but upon the Savannah River, a few miles above the city, Eli Whitney, the shrewd Connecticut con- triver, worked out the secret saws of the cot- ton-ein, and made Georcria and the whole South opulent and powerful. The Piedmont- ese still spin their silk under their own trees at home ; but ten million bales of cotton annually whiten in the suns and frosts, and to-day more tha...n one million bales each year are exported from Savannah alone. So two New England heroes, Nathanael Greene and Eli Whitney, aided in protecting the people of Georgia from a foreign foe and in building up their com- mercial supremacy.
No sketch of colonial Georgia is adequate which omits the name of Tomochichi. This aged Creek was over ninety years old when he welcomed Oglethorpe to his demesne. The loyalty of the venerable mico to his white friends never faltered. He hailed them with all the grace and amity of Montezuma, and fjuarded them airainst attacks from the tribes of the interior.
