What reading level is From Ruwenzori to the Congo: a Naturalist's Journey Across Africa book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was the same with the doth ; one district had a preference for blue cloth, another for white, and another for spotted cloth. There are as many different fashions in beads and cloth in Central Africa as there are in ladies* hats and gowns in more civilized countries.
At first sight this may seem to be a small matter, but it is, as a matter of fact, the outward and visible expression of one of themost fundamental errors which the Congo Free State has made. By means which I do not profess to un...derstand, the State has suc- ceeded in ousting all private traders from the Congo,* and, except in those districts that are leased to con- cessionary companies, has become the sole trader and the sole employer of labour. Under these cir- cumstances the authorities have, naturally enough, not seen the necessity of going to the expense of establishing a currency which would be universal throughout the country, but they have adhered to the antiquated and doubtless more profitable method of paying for everything in trade goods.
