What reading level is Loiterings in Old Fields; Literary Sketches book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
... If a man does anything good, the world always finds it out, sooner or later, and if he doesn't, why, the world finds that out, too and ought to. ... Women need social stimulus more than we [men]. They con- tribute to it more, and their magnetism, unless drawn off by the natural conductors, turns inward and irri- tates. ... I look upon a belief as none the worse, but rather the better, for being hereditary, prizing as I do whatever helps to give continuity to the being and doing of man and a...n accumulated force to his character. . . . They go about to prove to me from a lot of nasty savages that conscience is a purely artificial product, as if that wasn't the very wonder of it. What odds whether it is the thing or the apti- tude that is innate? What race of beasts ever got one up in all their leisurely aeons? ... I don't care where the notion of immortality came from. If it sprang out of a controlling necessity of our nature, some instinct of self-protection and preservation, like the color of some of Darwin's butterflies, at any rate it is there and as real as that, and I mean to hold it fast.
