What reading level is The American House Carpenter a Treatise Upon Architecture Cornices And Mouldin book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Fig. 251 is an elevation of a door and trimmings suita- ble for the best rooms of a dwelling. (For trimmings generally, see Sect. III. ) The number of panels into which a door should be divided, is adjusted at pleasure ; yet the present style of finish- ing requires, that the number be as small as a proper regard for strength will admit. In some of our best dwellings, doors have been made having only two upright panels. A few years expe- rience, however, has proved that the omission of the lock... rail is at the expense of the strength and durability of the door ; four-panel door, therefore, is the best that can be made.
348. The doors of a dwelling should all be hung so as to open into the principal rooms ; and, in general, no door should be hung to open into the hall, or passage. As to the proper edge of the door on which to affix the hinges, no general rule can be assigned.

It may be observed, however, that a bed-room door should be hung so that, when half open, it will screen the bed ; and a door leading from a hall, or passage, to a principal room, should screen the fire.
