What reading level is The American in England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Having descended about sixty feet from the surface of the bank of the river, the tunnel broke suddenly upon our view. It consists of two separate roads : the left alone was visible, being lighted with gas. They are of horse-shoe form, leaning towards each other, their sides being nearly straight on th« inside, though quite oval without. They are arched on the bottom as well as the top, in order to be tight, and defended in all directions. Being plastered over and well lighted, the effect of thi...s subterranean passage was singularly striking and grand, even without superadding the conception of its position beneath the bed of a river, and the wonderful novelty and hardihood of the undertaking. The idea is, however, con- stantly forced upon your attention by the dripping of the water, the sense of dampness and chilliness, and the hoarse panting of the steam-engine and the valves of the huge pumps, the only sounds which disturb this solitude, and remind you 176 THE AJVIEKICAN IN ENGLAND.
