What reading level is Holland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The auctioneer him- self did not disdain to be witty as he endeavoured to persuade some one to start the bidding. Of points the horse had many, its skeleton being but barely covered with a mangy brown skin ; and as it stood there with all four legs bent inwards, and its head apparently drooping in shame at such painful publicity, it seemed a cruel mockery to let the sale go on. At length a bid was made — thirty guldens, which equals fifty shillings, and this noble offer set the ball rolling. It... was raised by guldens until the sum had reached the generous amount of fifty. The auctioneer, with the patter of his trade, was just about to knock it down to the bidder, when a sailor in the crowd, blushing at the sound of his own voice, raised the bid to sixty guldens (five pounds). This was not disputed, and the crowd found a fresh source of amusement in the evident surprise with which Jack heard that the horse was his. He had but recently landed, and his pockets were full of money, so he handed over the sixty guldens to the auctioneer's assistant, and suffered the bridle to be placed between his unresisting fingers.
