What reading level is An Explorer's Adventures in Tibet book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
With the ac- cumulated filth that from birth is undisturbed by soap, scrubbing, or bathing; with nose, cheeks, and forehead smeared with black ointment to prevent the skin cracking in the wind; and with the unpleasant odor that emanates from never-changed clothes, the Tibetan woman is, at her best, repulsive to a European. After one has over- come one's first disgust, she yet has, at a distance, a cer- tain charm of her own. She walks well, for she is ac- customed to carry heavy weights on her ...head. Her skull would be well-set upon her shoulders were it not that the neck is too short and thick to be graceful. Her body and limbs possess great muscular strength, and are well developed, but generally lack firmness. She is heavily built, and inclined to stoutness.
The Tibetan woman is superior to the Tibetan man.
She possesses a better heart, more pluck, and a finer character than he. Time after time, when the men, timid beyond all conception, ran away at our approach, the women remained in charge of the tents, and, although by no means cool or collected, they rarely failed to meet us without some show of dignity.
