What reading level is The New England Magazine book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I DO not think that Miss Matilda Armi- tage has ever quite forgiven pretty Hes- ter Amiitage, my great-great-grand- mother, for having been so far forgetful of her lineage as to marry a New Eng- lander, and am positive that a slight de- precation of my Puritan blood still lingers in her cousinly regard for me. Be this as it may, she sent me a kind and affec- tionate letter, though couched in language somewhat stilted and formal, urging me to" make my summer home with her in Virginia. The family... had always been a small one, she explained, never having conformed to the prevailing colonial cus- tom of seventeen children to a marriage ; and now with her the name was about to become extinct. Being the last of this line she considered the greatest glory this mortal life could hold — a glory tarnished by certain melancholy reflections, for which, however, it showed a greater bril- liance through contrast.
For reasons of antiquarian tastes and a pardonable curiosity, the invitation was sufficiently tempting to make its accept- ance my vacation programme.
