What reading level is Robert Burns book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Still we cannot think that the poet was happy in his companion ; nor was he yet happy in himself. Otherwise the High- land tour might have been more interesting, certainly much more profitable to the poet in its results, than it actually proved.
In his diary of this tour, as in his diary of the Border tour, there is much more of shrewd remark on men and things than of poetical jottings. The fact is, poetry is not to be collected in jottings, nor is inspiration to be culled in catalogue cuttings
... ; and if many of his friends were again disappointed in the immediate ROBERT BURNS 99 poetical results of this holiday, it only shows how little they understood the comings and goings of in- spiration. Those, however, who read his notes and reflections carefully and intelligently are bound to notice how much more than a mere verse-maker Burns was.
This was the journal of a man of strong, sound sense and keen observation. It has also to be recognised that Burns was at his weakest when he attempted to describe scenery for mere scenery's sake.
