What reading level is Three Visits to America book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
xvi. KANSAS CITY. 259 on condition of five years' residence, 160 acres at a fee of twenty dollars to the land office, but it is found better to purchase land near the railroads than to accept a grant of land at a considerable distance from one.
The Union D£p6t in Kansas City presents a busy and con- fusing scene. The first time I stopped there I thought I had fallen upon some special day, but subsequent visits proved to me that it was simply wearing its usual aspect. The waiting-rooms are invar...iably crowded, and if you have to travel by a train which discards the use of a Pullman carriage, your lot is not an enviable one, unless indeed you wish to study life in its very roughest phases.
The live-stock trade of Kansas City was estimated at 65,000,000 dollars for the year 1882. Seven hundred head of Scotch cattle were imported by one firm last year ; their thick, heavy hides make them great favourites on the plains, as they resist the storms which sometimes prove so fatal there. In fact, now that the financial cloud has lifted, immigration to Kansas means prosperity, if the settler is gifted with that rare quality which Americans designate as " snap." Men without energy will experience as much dis- appointment in the New World as in Europe, but those who are prepared to take proper advantage of the resources America affords cannot fail to command success.
