What reading level is The River book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Poor people make poor land.
For a quarter of a century we have been forcing more and more farmers into tenancy. Today forty percent of all the farmers in the great Valley are tenants.
Ten percent are share croppers, Down on their knees in the valley, A share of the crop their only security. No home, no land of their own, Aimless, footloose, and impoverished, Unable to eat even from the land because their cash crop is their only livelihood.
Credit at the store is their only reserve. And a genera...tion growing up with no new land in the West- No new continent to build. A generation whose people knew King's Mountain, and Shiloh ; A generation whose people knew Fremont and Custer; But a generation facing a life of dirt and poverty, Disease and drudgery; Growing up without proper food, medical care, or schooling, "Ill-clad, ill-housed, and ill- fed"- And in the greatest river valley in the world.
MONT 'DAHO WYO MINN WIS COL NEB KAN IOWA OHIO WVA There is no such thine/ as an ideal river in Nature, but the Mississippi is out of joint.
