What reading level is The Virginia Tourist Sketches of the Springs And Mountains of Virginia Contain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
One incident of Estillville must not be omitted. It was natural for a traveler, wearied by a long ride, to ask for a glass of spirits, and one whose experi- ence hitherto had been that there was not a cross-roads, much less a village, in Virginia where whisky of some quality might not be procured. But not a drop of liquor of any sort is to be got in Estillville, and the remarkable fact was ascertained that not for fifteen years has there been a license to sell liquor in the county. Here is a re...cord indeed for the temperance cause, and that, too, in a mountain county of Virginia, where the display of so much virtue has been lost to fame. A little observa- tion was convincing enough that there were no hardier, healthier, manlier people to be found in Virginia than A WEEK IN SOUTH-WEST VIRGINIA. 99 those among whom our lot had fallen for a few days ; and recollections of their hospitality, their intelligence, their thrifty and honest and innocent lives have been borne away by at least one grateful traveler.
