What reading level is Life And Letters of Bayard Taylor book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The sale of my former volumes of travel has fallen almost to nothing, as is natural, for they were doomed, from the first, to a transient existence. For two years past I have had no income of any sort from property or copyrights, and am living partly upon my capital and partly upon mechanical la- bor of the mind. Within a year I have written " Lars," compiled 632 BAYARD TAYLOR.
a volume on Central Asia for Scribners, done the Vienna Exposi- tion for the " Tribune," written a, complete " School ...History of Germany " (working on it ten hours a day for months), and have just returned from six weeks of Goethe studies and researches in Weimar. I am very weary, indeed, completely fagged out, and to read what you say of my success sounds almost like irony.
The fancy that you may think me spoiled by it makes me laugh.
It would take a great deal more praise than I get to make me feel that the one resolute aim of these later years is at all gen- erally appreciated. . . .
The hints which Bayard Taylor had dropped to one or two of his most intimate friends of a mysterious work upon which he was engaged point to his drama of " The Prophet." Several years before, when walk- ing with a friend, their conversation fell upon the Mormons, and his friend sketched a drama which he meant to write some day with the Mormon superstition for an historic basis.
