What reading level is On the Dodge book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
John Bender, the conductor, asked him for his ticket. He had none, but he pulled out a handful of gold pieces.
"I wantta--g-go to--h-hell," he hiccoughed.
Bender did not hesitate an instant. "Get off at Dodge. One dollar, please." Dodge City did not get its name because so many of its citizens were or had been, in the Texas phrase, on the dodge. It came quite respectably by its cognomen. The town was laid out by A. A. Robinson, chief engineer of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe, and it was called... for Colonel Richard I. Dodge, commander of the post at Fort Dodge and one of the founders of the place. It is worth noting this, because it is one of the few respectable facts in the early history of the cowboy capital. Dodge was a wild and uncurried prairie wolf, and it howled every night and all night long. It was gay and young and lawless. Its sense of humour was exaggerated and worked overtime. The crack of the six-shooter punctuated its hilarity ominously. Those who dwelt there were the valiant vanguard of civilization.
