What reading level is Joys of the Road book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
They are wayworn by the travel that goes by and over them, with- out travelling themselves.
Some do not walk at all; others walk in the highways ; a few walk across lots. Roads are made for horses and men of business. I do not travel in them much, comparatively, because I am not in a hurry to get to any tavern or grocery or livery-stable or depot to which they lead. I am a good horse to travel, but not from choice a roadster. The landscape-painter uses the figures of men to mark a road. He woul...d not make that use of my figure. I walk out into a Nature such as the old prophets and poets, Menu, Moses, Homer, Chaucer, walked in. You may name it America, but it is not America; neither Americus Vespucius, nor Columbus, nor the rest were the discover- ers of it. There is a truer account of it in mythology than in any history of America, so-called, that I have seen.
What is it that makes it so hard some- times to determine whither we will walk ? I HENRY DAVID THOREAU believe that there is a subtle magnetism, in Nature, which, if we unconsciously yield to it, will direct us aright.
