What reading level is Memorials of Willard Fiske volume 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Whatever is consumed being pur- chased at wholesale prices, the consumer saves the profits of the retail dealer. Take the common arti- cle of ale. A mug of ale is ordinarily sold at ten 125 126 Memorials of Willard Fiske cents; in a club its price is rarely higher than five. The usual price of a dish of stewed oysters is twen- ty-five cents; a club member obtains it, better cooked, for fifteen at the highest. A game of bil- liards costs at most billiard rooms twenty cents ; the charge at a lead...ing New York club is five, which suffices to pay the cost of keeping the tables and cues in order. Upon all articles of consumption, such as meats, cigars and wines, the saving effected is in general from thirty to fifty per cent.
The annual dues of clubs vary, of course, with their general expenses. In New York the semi-an- nual payment of each member is in some instances fifteen dollars, in others twenty dollars. Out of the funds thus accumulated the rent of the clubhouse, the hire of servants and the subscriptions to the magazines and newspapers of the reading-room are defrayed.
