What reading level is A Pictorial View of California Including a Description of the Panama And Nicara book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The precise spot is rarely found ; people get within twenty miles of it, but seldom nearer. As if exerting the influ- ence of the Upas tree, they cannot approach within the pre- scribed limit. At the same time, many were engaged in private leads that were paying well, some averaging an ounce per day, and some even more. At the mouth of a ravine near, there were ten persons at work, who were averaging one and a half ounces per day. There were others in the vicinity doing equally well.
The countr...y had been thoroughly prospected ; there was not a bar nor ravine that did not bear the impress of the pick and shovel. There were daily discoveries of deposits, sufficiently rich to pay well ; still, such discoveries, in proportion to the number in search of them, were not one to twenty. All were earning something, and the mass more than their expenses, still they were not averaging good wages. A man could place his machine almost anywhere and get two dollars per day ; this, however, barely pays for the provisions consumed, and unless a lead will pay at least five or six dollars, it is not considered worth working.
