What reading level is Iroquois Uses of Maize And Other Food Plants book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

These particular masks are used mostly on the Allegany Reservation. Husk bottles, trays and baskets are woven in the same manner as the woven mask as also are sandals and moccasins although the latter are about obsolete now [see pi. 24] . Another interesting article manufactured from corn husk is the lounging mat, ono'nya' geska'a or yiondyade n kwa'. This is made of short lengths of the husk neatly rolled and folded at the ends, into which other lengths were inserted and tied in place by a war...p of basswood cord. A specimen of this mat is shown in plate 25. It was collected by the author in 1907 on the Tonawanda-Seneca Reservation. It was claimed that it was the old form of the Iro- quois sleeping and lounging mat. It can easily be rolled up and is of no great weight. The writer is not aware of another specimen in any museum. No great age is ascribed to the State Museum specimen, the owner, Lyman Johnson, Gaient'wake', claiming it had been made in about 1900 by his mother. ' Probably the corn husk article most familiar to white people sur- rounding Indian reservations is the husk door mat, gadji'sha'.
