What reading level is Sketches of America a Narrative of a Journey of Five Thousand Miles Through the book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When 1 had remained here half an hour, the bar-keeper informed me that all their beds were engaged. This, at so late a period in the evening, and with the rain pouring in torrents, was not the most agreeable reception, particularly as I had not rested upon a bed for the four previous nights. A gentleman whom I had seen when in Pennsyl- vania endeavoured to procure me a share in that of his friend, his own being already doubly en- gaged. The negotiation failing, I applied to the bar-keeper to be... allowed to remain in the house, though without a bed. To this he assented, and placing some chairs against the wall, with saddle-bags for my pillow, I enjoyed a comfortable night's rest.
Many persons in this State have coloured people, which they call their property. The mode in which they effect this perpetuation of slavery, in violation of the spirit of the Ohio constitution, is to purchase blacks, and have them apprenticed to them. Some are so base as to take these negroes down the river at the ap- proach of the expiration of their apprenticeship, and sell them at Natchez for life !
