What reading level is Quaker Hill; a Sociological Study book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Labor- ers from Ireland and other European lands, even negroes from Virginia, took their places. New Yorkers became residents on the Hill, which became the farthest terminus of suburban traffic. The railroad granted commuters' rates to Pawling, and twice as many trains as to any station furtlier out. The population of the Hill became diversified, while industries became simpUfied. In the first century the people were one, the industries many. In the Period of the Mixed Community, in the second ...century, the people were many and the industries but one. I speak elsewhere of these elements of the mixed community. Suffice it to have traced here the simplif)ring of the economic life of the Hill, by the influence of the railroad, which made the neighborhood only one factor in a vaster industrial community, of which New York was the center.
When the Meeting House and the Merritt store were for a century the centers of a homogeneous Quaker community, it was a solid unit, of one type, doing varied things ; when Wall Street and Broadway became the social and industrial centers, a varied people, no less unified, did but one thing.
