What reading level is Cannibals & Convicts : Notes of Personal Experiences in the Western Pacific book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He took his watch with the second mate, Mare Sam^ and at times^ too, you would see him at the helm. Now, as I have referred to Captain Proctor's loss of a limb at Chan* cellorsville, it may be wondered how he managed to get around on board ship. He had a wonderful collection of artificial legs, useful for all occasions — riding, walking, sailing, fighting — everything except dancing, which, like myself, he now despised.
These limbs were made so well that wl en you looked at the small, well-fitt...ing boots, you could not say which was the real and which the false foot. Captain Proctor halted slightly, but he would have no assistance from crutch or stick, only on state occasions he used the gold-headed cane presented to him by the soldiers of his old company.
Captain Proctor, with one whole leg and a substitute, did everjrthing which most men do with two. He could still swim well, and had saved several lives, but occasionally he found the loss of his limb to be awkward. Thus, a few years back, when trading in the Wallis Islands, he had a complication with the natives, who seized him, took away his false leg, chained him to a tree, and passed sentence of death upon him, which, however, they hesitated to carry out.
