What reading level is Where Ghosts Walk; the Haunts of Familiar Characters in History And Literature book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We have to go back to Boc- caccio for the graphic outline of an event which, for thrilling dramatic interest, casts every other Florentine legend into the shade. Boccaccio availed himself of it, but did not invent it.

You will see from that corner,"— pointing through his door, The Ginevra Tale 15 1 — " the site of her husband's house in the Corso degl...i Adimari." Instead of obeying the direction of his finger, we have come to the Square of the Duomo, and, recalling the fact that the door of the family vault in which the sup- posed corpse was interred, was between Cathedral and Campanile, we locate the same to our satisfaction. " The lily of Florence, blossoming in stone," the Cam- panile of Giotto, "the model and mirror of perfect architecture," was then unfin- ished, a truncated shaft, and but a mass of gloom in the darkness of the night, when the affrighted creature struggled back to life.
