What reading level is Notes of Foreign Travel book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Until within three or four years only light carriages drawn by one horse and carrying two persons could be used on this difficult road, now much improved. At first we fol- low the great St Bernard road through Martigny-Bourg, Drance Bridge, La Croix ; then, turning to the right, wind up slopes rich with meadows, orchards and vines, to the Col de la Forclaz, three and one half hours from our starting-point and nearly 5000 feet above the sea. All along the backward view of the Rhone valley and Ma...rtigny with its old castle has been increasingly fine, and now we enter the forest of dark firs at the base of the TSte Noire, the slender waters of the Trient murmuring nearly 2000 feet below.
We dine quite well at the Hotel de la Tete Noire, and after resting the horses two hours, proceed through scenes wilder and fully as impressive as any we have met. We descend by a road of dangerous steepness to the gloomy valley of the Eau Noire, and pass from Switzerland into Savoy, since i860 belong- ing to France.
