What reading level is Hunting the Grisly And Other Sketches book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Moreover, if attacked at close quarters by men and dogs hestrikes right and left in defence. Sometimes what is called a charge is rather an effort to get away. Inlocalities where he has been hunted, a bear, like every other kind ofgame, is always on the look-out for an attack, and is prepared at anymoment for immediate flight. He seems ever to have in his mind, whether feeding, sunning himself, or merely roaming around, thedirection--usually towards the thickest cover or most broken ground--inw...hich he intends to run if molested. When shot at he instantly startstowards this place; or he may be so confused that he simply runs heknows not whither; and in either event he may take a line that leadsalmost directly to or by the hunter, although he had at first no thoughtof charging. In such a case he usually strikes a single knock-down blowand gallops on without halting, though that one blow may have takenlife. If the claws are long and fairly sharp (as in early spring, oreven in the fall, if the animal has been working over soft ground) theyadd immensely to the effect of the blow, for they cut like blunt axes.
