What reading level is Initial Studies in American Letters 8 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. . The ship was now repeatedly hailed, but made no reply, and, passing by the fort, stood on up the Hudson. Agun was brought to bear on her, and, with some difficulty, loaded andfired by Hans Van Pelt, the garrison not being expert in artillery. The shot seemed absolutely to pass through the ship, and to skip alongthe water on the other side; but no notice was taken of it! What wasstrange, she had all her sails set, and sailed right against wind andtide, which were both down the river. . . . T...hus she kept on, away upthe river, lessening and lessening in the evening sunshine, until shefaded from sight like a little white cloud melting away in the summersky. . . .
Messengers were dispatched to various places on the river, but theyreturned without any tidings--the ship had made no port. Day afterday, week after week elapsed, but she never returned down the Hudson. As, however, the council seemed solicitous for intelligence they had itin abundance. The captains of the sloops seldom arrived withoutbringing some report of having seen the strange ship at different partsof the river--sometimes near the Palisades, sometimes off Croton Point, and sometimes in the Highlands; but she never was reported as havingbeen seen above the Highlands.
