What reading level is The Lakes of England book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
At the foot of this lake lie a few unornamented fields, through which rolls a little brook, connecting it with the larger lake of Crummock, and at the edge of this miniature domain, upon the roadside, stands a cluster of cot- tages, so small and few, that in the rider tracts of land they would scarcely be complimented with the name of hamlet." The little inn near the chapel recalls to memory the story of 24 BUTTERMEEE LAKE.
Mary, the beautiful maid of Buttermere, this being the spot where she H...ved. The ballad, which is well known, describes her as being so beautiful that her charms were heard of far and near, and that her employment as the innkeeper's daughter was to wait upon the guests. The narrative further states, that a man calling himself the Honorable Colonel Hope, brother of Lord Hopetown, but whose real name was Hatfield, was much struck with her attractions, and paid his addresses to her, and they were eventually married. Soon after the marriage it turned out that he was a rogue, who had com- mitted forgery, and had fled to the seclusion of the mountains ; here he was tracked, arrested, and in a very short space of time tried at Carlisle, and, under the then existing law, was executed for the crime.
