What reading level is New Homes Under Old Roofs book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We know and appreciate the small square panes, and it is hard to picture an old house with any other type of glass. In all modern Colonial and Georgian work, as in all restorative attempts, this lineament is properly repeated. At first these windows were designed very small and narrow, the lower sash being larger and containing more divisions than the upper or vice versa.
Early in the nineteenth century the sash began to be made equal in size and number of lights, while the windows themselves b...ecame larger and more evenly distributed.
Our early farmhouse was rarely of brick; and almost never of stone or stucco like its contemporary in England. Among the Virginia plan- tations brick was the prevailing material, and in New Netherlands stone and stucco. The great wealth of timber lands immediately surrounding the settlements afforded the obvious building material, but it is doubtful whether useful forest trees grew any more productively in New England than in the settlements of the South and New York.
