What reading level is Geography of the Upper Illinois Valley And History of Development book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
These three classes of men represent the great ends for which the French pressed westward into this unknown domain. (1) Stories of natural wonders, strange peoples, and marvelous riches fired the imagination of Europeans during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The desire to explore new lands possessed adventurous minds the world over. This motive was strong in all the early expeditions which penetrated the Mississippi Basin from the time the first Spanish adventurers wandered about the ...lower Mississippi Valley. One of the great incentives for adventurous exploits lay in the search for a western passage to the Pacific Ocean, a search which continued for almost a century before hope of its success was abandoned. (2) Glit- tering schemes for the colonization of the interior, agricultural and others, led provincial governors, from time to time, to despatch expeditions inland from the northeastern provinces. (3) Almost always abreast of the soldier, and sometimes ahead of him, came the zealous missionary, friar of one of the numerous holy orders that proselyted in the rich field of heathendom here opened to them.
