What reading level is The Land of Purple Shadows book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
An interested crowd they were, too, for they peered curiously into the stage where sat a woman brave enough to tempt Providence by crossing the mountains during a midwinter storm. They stared at the woman and the very young girl; and the latter as frankly returned the stare of those in mud-spattered oilskins which shed oceans of rainwatery tears when ever their wearers moved this way or that. For three long weeks, they told us, there had been no cessation of the rain ; not one hour of clear ski...es had there been. Business men called across the mountains reaching Placerville, had become fearful of what they might en counter beyond, and had not dared to venture, so had, one back to their homes at "the Bay. " No wonder it was that those there found an interest in seeing the mother and daughter bent on essaying what men had turned back from.
Afternoon found the stages encountering less mud, as the road now leading up among the pine trees and granite boulders reached higher altitudes. Then climbing the "slippery ford" which all the old-time teamsters knew only too well.
