What reading level is The Haunted Adjutant And Other Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Clara Forrester was but I won't describe her. I never could de scribe a pretty woman. And, for that matter, who ever could ? Suffice it to say, she was a blonde, with a profusion of fair hair, I doubt not, but its color was concealed by that plaguy powder ; and yet I can't say the effect was unbecoming to her pure brow, her blooming, downy cheeks, and sweet mouth. And that morning cap had a most coquettish and killing air.
" And then her teeth, and then, oh Heaven ! her eye ! " It was as wicked... and roguish an eye as you would wish to see on a winter's day looking into yours by the side of a good fire. And then her hand, and her foot, and her shape ! But I won't go on. If you can't see her, just as she was sitting there, it 's of no use for me to be trying to fit your mind's eye with a pair of spectacles. It 's your fault, and not mine, reader, if you don't see her sitting in that old-fashioned room, in the glittering light of that clear winter morn ing of seventy years ago.
