What reading level is The Chronicles of America Series volume 18 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

His first concern was to recall the surveying parties from Kentucky, and for so hazardous an errand he needed the services of a man whose endurance, speed, and woodcraft were equal to those of any Indian scout afoot. Through Colonel Preston, his orders were conveyed to Daniel Boone, for Boone's fame had now spread from the border to the tidewater regions. It was stated that "Boone would lose no time, " and "if they are alive, it is indisputable but Boone must find them. " So Boone set out in co...mpany with Michael Stoner, another expert woodsman. His general instructions were to go down the Kentucky River to Preston's Salt Lick and across country to the Falls of the Ohio, and thence home by Gaspar's Lick on the Cumberland River. Indian war par- ties were moving under cover across "the Dark THE FIGHT FOR KENTUCKY 121 and Bloody Ground" to surround the various groups of surveyors still at large and to exterminate them. Boone made his journey successfully. He found John Floyd, who was surveying for Wash- ington; he sped up to where Harrod and his band were building cabins and sent them out, just in time as it happened ; he reached all the outposts of Thomas Bullitt's party, only one of whom fell a victim to the foe'; and, undetected by the Indians, he brought himself and Stoner home in safety, after covering eight hundred miles in sixty-one days.
