What reading level is The Rift book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Those on the 16th ult. and since done much damage on the Mississippi river, from the mouth of the Ohio to Little Prairie particularly. Many boats have been lost, and much property sunk. The banks of the river, in many places, sunk hundreds of acres together, leaving the tops of the trees to be seen above the water. The earth opened in many places from one to three feet wide, through whose fissures stone coal was thrown up in pieces as large as a man’s hand. The earth rocked— trees lashed their t...ops together. The whole seemed in convulsions, throwing up sand bars here, there sinking others, trees jumping from the bed of the river, roots uppermost, forming a most serious impediment to navigation, where before there was no obstruction— boats rocked like cradles— men, women and children confused, running to and fro and hallooing for safety— those on land pleading to get into the boats— those in boats willing almost to be on land. This damning and distressing scene continued for several days, particularly at and above Flour island.
