What reading level is Canadian Nights Being Sketches And Reminiscences of Life And Sport in the Rocki book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Indeed, it was the natural mode of progression in Newfoundland, NEWFOUNDLAND IN THE 'SEVENTIES 203 where the ocean is, or was at the time of my visit, the principal highway. Roads in those days — and I am thinking of events which happened some years ago — there were none, except in the vicinity of St. John's and one or two other towns. People who, for their sins, had to go from one part of the island to another, travelled in the most uncertain, vague, and promiscuous manner, sometimes taking da...ys, weeks, or even months, in accomplishing quite a short distance, and sometimes never getting to their destination at all. The usual method of procedure appeared to be to embark in the coasting steamer, and go ashore as near the place you wished to visit as the route pursued by the steamer would permit. The traveller might by that means get within ten or twenty or fifty or one hundred miles of his destination, as the case might be. He would then betake himself to a house or cabin, if there happened to be one in the neighbourhood, and wait there, or he would build a big fire and sit on a rock until some coasting schooner, or fishing smack, or open boat happened to pass by, going in the right direction, in which he would embark and get another lift upon his road.
