What reading level is The Scholars Larger Life book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The mastery of nations has in every case come from the possession of horses. The amazing rapidity of the spread of Mohammedanism came from the same sort of ownership. If with the improvement of fire- arms, cavalry grows less effective, yet recent experi- ences in war show, that in future, the conspicuous part will be borne by mounted infantry. At Chatta- nooga, in preparation for the Spanish War, some young patriots, although clutching at the reins with [96] THE SUPERLATIVE VACATION both hands ...in frantic efforts to hold themselves on, kept tumbling off their mounts while performing, in a great cloud of dust, the evolutions peculiar to cavalry men. Nothing short of being strapped on could, I thought, save them in their inexperience. Nations as well as individuals, are under incalcul- able obligations to our noblest friend, the horse. He gives to life its spice and its prize, and to some men like Paul Revere, and Phil Sheridan, their earthly immortality. He is the greatest pleasure giver to man.
