What reading level is A Treatise On the Six Nation Indians book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With the Indian, poverty shapes hishabits of life, and he bends to compulsion's decree in the matter. Ifwe consider his hypothetical translation to a higher sphere, the Indianmight develop and maintain a course of living which should not, in thosealtered circumstances, discredit him.
As our notions of early Indian life are so associated with the wigwam, a description of the manner and stages of its construction may beinteresting. Poles, twelve or fourteen feet long, are placed in theground, the...se meeting at the top, and leaving an opening through whichthe smoke may escape. Over the poles are placed nets, made of flags, or birch bark, and, sometimes, the skins of animals.
The Indian, in defining comfort, evidently does not mean soft beds andgenerous covering. His couch, as often as not, is the bare floor, withoutmattrass, or, indeed, aught that might be conceded to a weak impulse;and his covering _nil_, as a rule, in summer, and a buffalo robe, or some kindred substitute, in winter. He adopts very frugal fare, doing high honour to maize, or Indian corn.
