What reading level is An Attempt to Solve the Problem of the First Landing Place of Columbus in the Ne book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

End. The journal evidently omits some of the distances run from Isabella to the Sand Islands; but on the 24th Columbus gives the bearing and distance of the S. W. Cape of Femandina, and this "departure" is put on the chart. Afterward he logs 16 leagues W. S. AV. , then he saw the Sand Islands 5 leagues distant, making a total of 21 leagues, 66. 8 nautical miles. The true course and distance from his "departure" to South Ragged are AV. S. W. 65 miles. This close agreement may be accidental; but ...if we omit all distances given, yet the courses found in the journal are irreconcilable with any from Great Inagua to the south eastern Bahama Bank. In respect to Port Xipe, which Xavarrete and Captain Becher adopt for Columbus's first anchoring-place in Cuba, see the discussion of Captain Becher's track. By selecting Turk for the first landfall, an extreme S. E. Island of the Bahamas, Xavarrete confronts Juan de la Cosa and Antonio Herrera ; for on their charts, which will be referred to Ia4s*, 5 u, Guanahani is an island situated near the middle of the X.
