What reading level is Fugitives book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
"I claim the right of asylum," he said in a strange patois of Spanish and the Apache dialect. The dark men paused. One of the Chiefs stepped out in advance of the others. Paint was streaked fantastically across his cheeks; his arms and wrists were adorned with bracelets; a pair of short skin leg- gings encased his legs ; and his breechclout was held by a girdle of human skin. From his shoulders fell a hide jacket that was fringed with scalp locks; and his own long hair was adorned with a profus...ion of eagle feathers that had been dyed red. This personage advanced with a swaying mo- tion like that of a python snaring its prey. "What is your people?" "I am of the people of the First of the Seven Lineages whose only God is the Sun." "And what of them?" "They are the Nation of the Seeds of Flow- ers." "From what lands?" "From the Place of the Herons." "And of what clan art thou?" "Of the Clan of the Wolf that is white." "What know we of the Wolf that is white?" "The Wolf that is white is he before whom the Chinchimecas hide their face." "Where did the Chinchimecas hide their face?" "Upon the banks of the Great Lake." "When was this?" "The Chinchimecas hid their face in the day when the Voice fell from Heaven." 37 "What said the Voice from Heaven to the Chinchimecas?" "The Voice from Heaven cried unto the Chinchimecas on that day when they hid their face, 'O, my Children, the time of your destruc- tion is come!' It was as the voice of a woman in pain." By this speech the Apaches knew that he be- longed to the Parcialidades, the first of the seven great divisions of the Aztecs ; and that he came from the province of Aztlan in Mexico that, according to the Spanish Chronicler, "continued a long time mightie." A second stalwart warrior stepped into the light and said: "Thou art then our brother.
