What reading level is Cuba And Porto Rico With the Other Islands of the West Indies Their Topography book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is essentially a disease of the sea-coast, and especially of large cities in an unsanitary condition; but when circumstances are favorable it may extend into the interior, following routes of travel, and especially navigable rivers, of which there are but few in Cuba.
It is, however, confined to the lower levels, even in tropical or subtropical regions. In the Antilles the disease rarely prevails at an altitude above seven hundred feet, and hence a large part of Cuba is free from it.
In thes...e pages I have endeavored to eliminate personal experiences, but while on the subject of health and sani- tation I am tempted to depart from this rule. The greater part of my life has been spent in traveling in unsanitary regions, including many years in the worst plague-spots of the tropics. By taking advantage of the best hygienic rules and precautions, I have been able to avoid the fatality which has overtaken many of my predecessors in geological exploration.
Three rules I have followed invariably: first, to adapt my habits of dress, food, and hours of work and rest to those of the people of the country ; secondly, never in any circumstances to drink a drop of native water where it could possibly be avoided, and if so always to boil it.
