What reading level is The Personality of American Cities book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" Only it all goes to show how we've bobbed up in the last twenty years. You know what we used to be — an inconsider- able lake port up on the north brink of Ohio with Cin- cinnati down there in the south pruning herself as a real metropolis and calling herself the Queen City. We might call ourselves the Queen City today and stretch no points, but that's a sort of fancy title that's gone out of fashion now. The Sixth City sounds more like the Twentieth Century. " And Cleveland having thus bapti...zed herself, as it were, proceeded to spread her new name to the world. " Cleveland — Sixth City " appeared on the stationery of her business houses ; her tailors stitched it in upon the labels of the ready-made suits they sent to all corners of the land; her bakers stamped it on the products of their ovens ; big shippers stenciled it over packing-cases ; manufacturers even placed it upon the brass-plates of the 185 i86 PERSONALITY OF AMERICAN CITIES lathes and other complicated machines they sent forth from their shops.
