To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The atmosphere has the peculiarity of all tropical or lower temperate latitudes. A shield from the sun without an over- roofing cover entirely changes the quality of the air. When it is blazing hot on the sunny side of the deck, a cap or stock ing hung just on the other side of the boom in the shade be- comes damp. The common moisture of the air saturates it. I find it better not to lie outstretched above deck after sundown best indeed to put on a sweater or extra woolen garment. Otherwise one ...becomes full of sluggishness and inertia. In the day one feels a certain dizziness if rising and stepping sud- denly out of the shade into the full sun glare. Some malaria, of course, along the equator. It is good advice to wear woolen flannels even at night. The sailors hold to heavy ones. Neptune evidently grew tired of waiting for us, and deter- mined to seek us out in advance of our reaching the line. I whiffed, toward late afternoon, an air of something ominous, and knew, too, that the time for my reception could not be far away.
