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


. Although the world is pretty well aware of the existence of pro- fessional builders and planters, still the majority of those who build and plant, in this country, do it without the advice of experienced persons. There is, apparentlyj a latent conviction at the bottom of every man's heart, that he can build a villa or a cottage, and lay out its grounds in a more perfect, or, at least, a much more satisfac- tory manner than any of his predecessors or contemporaries. Fatal delusion ! One may pl
...ead his own case in law, or even ^vrite a lay sermon, like Sir Walter Scott, with more chance of success than he will have in realizing, in solid walls, the perfect model of beauty and convenience that fioats dimly in his head. We mean this to apply chiefly to the production as a work of art.
As a matter of economy, it is still worse. If the improver selects an experienced architect, and contracts with a responsible and trustworthy builder, he knows within twenty per cent, at the farthest, of what his edifice will cost.
