What reading level is The American Sportsman book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Such a savage as this is more fit for the negro quarter than the banquet-room of the polished and refined. The rational gratification of a natural appetite with such dainties as a kind Providence, in his infinite goodness, has given us in this world, cannot justly be called gluttony ; nor can a proper attention or nice discrimination in serving them up be termed sensuality ; as both the one and the other are the actual gifts of the Almighty, the different varieties of viands on the one hand to ...tempt our palates, and the exquisite sense of taste on the other to enable us to appreciate them when laid before us. We have observed that those among our acquaintances who most frequently speak discouragingly of the pleasures of the table, and most vociferously disclaim all pretensions to what they significantly term good eat- ing, which, in truth, means nothing more nor less than having 492 LEWIS'S AMEKICAN SPORTSMAN. Good food cooked in a wholesome and sensible manner, these same individuals, we say, when seated at the festive board, are the very foremost to find fault if the dishes are not served up in becoming style, or rather in accordance with their own peculiar and some- times outlandish notions.
