What reading level is Nature in Books: Some Studies in Biography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' Can they plough,' asked Mr. Euskin a quarter HENRY DAVID THOREAU 77 of a century later concerning our youths, ' can they sow, can they plant at the right time or build with a steady hand ? ' At Brook Farm, Fruitlands, and other places, experiments in this ideal life, where thought and labour were mingled in equal quantities, had been tried, but had not commended themselves to the judgment of Emerson or Thoreau. The exile of Thoreau, however, was in a measure prompted by this as well as by his... love of Nature.
Yet there were further and perhaps deeper influences at work. In the early ages of Christianity it was not uncommon for one who during' a brief season had made a brave show in the World's Fair, weary, heart-sore, and disappointed, to withdraw from the turmoil, and from solitary cave or rough woodland hut look forth on the circling processional seasons, till the red and green became dim to his ageing eyes and death seized him and he was resolved into dust again. People glibly condemn all that now, saying that the world was none the better for the regular orisons, the quavering chant that mingled with the morning song of birds grown fearless of a companion who lived on roots and pulse rather than slay them.
