What reading level is Letters From Switzerland book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Among the scattered fragments of rocks, no path was to be seen ; and we frequently feared that we had lost our way. I followed the guide to the brink of a precipice two thousand feet deep, and per- pendicular. Down the face of this solid rock leads the most wonderful of all the pathways in Switzer- land. So narrow as just to allow two mules to pass as they meet, the zigzag path is cut out of the solid rock, and covered with earth and stones to prevent our feet from slipping. The mule, by a wond...erful in- stinct, walks upon the extreme outer verge, lest in making the sudden turn his load should strike the rock and tumble him off.
Sheltered somewhat from the rain by the overhang- ing rocks, we pursued our weary way to the bottom ; and then, through mud and mire and darkness, drenched to our skins, we reached the Hotel Blanche at Leukenbad.
This is the great bathing establishment of Switzer- land. It is higher above the sea than the summit of any mountain in Great Britain. Again and again it has been swept away by avalanches, and is now pro- tected by a strong wall above the village.
