What reading level is Making a Living in the Good Old Days book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Edward Austin Sr. , the grandfather of our present T. Edward Austin, built a home, almost a castle, on several hundred acres of land he had purchased just west of town. It was a show place for that day, not only here, but for almost any community. Many of our older residents remember it. It burned one night about twenty years ago.
Calvin, brother of Edward, also built a palatial home, which later became a part of Bissell's College, and is now the appartment house located on South Fourth Street,
... just southeast of Bliss Park. Adjacent to it was his stable and carriage house, a large two story building of the same type of archetecture. More elegant and stately than any other home in Effingham at that time. It was torn down some years ago.
Edward Austin had nine children - seven boys and two girls and he built a project for each of his children to manage.
The Austins built the first electric light plant here and owned and managed it until it was sold to the local C. I. P. S. Co. About 45 years ago.
