What reading level is The Crystal City: the Tales of Alvin Maker, volume Vi book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Slightly shabby, perhaps, but it wasn’t completely impossible that they would have a mammy slave like La Tia seemed to be and a sturdy young man like Arthur Stuart.
It’s not like strangers would be rare in this country, either. Ten years ago the only white folks here was trappers or fugitives. But when most of the reds who didn’t want to live white crossed over the Mizzippy, it opened up this land to settlement. Around here, if your house had been standing for five years, you were an old-timer. ...So nobody’d be too surprised to see two ladies of a family they didn’t know—or so they hoped.
Alvin refused to go to the door of the plantation house with them. “What good does it do for you to see how I’d do it? I’m a white man, and not a word I say would be useful to you after. I’ll be watching in case anything goes wrong, but you’ve got to do it yourselves.”
La Tia and Arthur Stuart waited just off the porch as Dead Mary and Rien stepped up to clap hands and call someone to the door.
