What reading level is Raeburn book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He rose at seven during summer, took breakfast about eight with his wife and children, walked up to his great room in 32 York Place, now [1829-33] occupied by Colvin Smith, R. S. A. , and was ready for a sitter by nine; and of sitters he generally had, for many years, not fewer than three or four a day. To these he gave an hour and a half each. He seldom kept a sitter more than two hours, unless the person hap- pened — and that w?s often the case — to be gifted with more than common talents. He... never drew in his heads, or indeed any part of the body, with [446] RAEBURN 27 chalk, but began with the brush at once. The forehead, chin, nose, and mouth were his first touches. He always painted standing, and never used a stick for resting his hand on; for such was his accuracy of eye and steadiness of nerve that he could introduce the most delicate touches, or the utmost mechanical regularity of line, without aid, or other contrivance than fair off-hand dex- terity. He remained in his painting-room till a little after five o'clock, when he walked home and dined at six.
