What reading level is Seeing the Sunny South book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CHAPTER XIV TO PALM BEACH AND BEYOND IN 1885 the East Coast of Florida was little better than a wilderness. In spots there were orange groves, but there were no transportation facilities, and to many people it seemed certain that in the entire region there never would be railroads of consequence. Here and there were scattered a few residents who looked on a journey a dozen miles from home as an event to be remembered. The Manufacturer's Record of Baltimore says that this vast region was one of ...the most uninviting development projects in the whole South.
But in 1885 Henry M. Flagler went from the North to Jacksonville and St. Augustine. Very soon he had a vision of the possibilities of the country. Although he was then fifty-five years old, he deliberately set him- self the task of developing the resources of the entire East Coast. If he had thought of reaping financial rewards in his lifetime, he would not have made his plans. But fortunately he had ceased to think of im- mediate returns in money from his investments.
