What reading level is The Rhine From Its Source to the Sea book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The wind rustles through the open door- ways, the foliage flourishes in the crevices, the swallow brushes the window-frames with its slender wings, and the stars look down from above into the roofless chambers.
Every corner is full of images, from that of the regal figure on the battlements to that of the dwarf who crouches in the cellar to guard the great cask. The latter is one of the wonders of Heidelberg, which no visitor omits seeing, and which many gaze on with more enthusiasm than on the... shattered splendour of kings. It is said to be capable of containing two hundred and thirty-six thousand bottles ; but the cask is empty, and is only a remnant of that time when princes prided themselves on the size of their belongings, and had lost that finer and more spiritual charm of possession which had departed from them.
I2O The Rhine.
When the old cask fell to pieces in the year 1751, the cooper had only to build a larger and more highly ornamented one to replace it.
Of all occupations and amusements none was wanting in Heidelberg ScJi-wetsinger.
