To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Thinking to distinguish him- self, the greenhorn dismounted from his mule and quickly hobbled her, throwing his lasso on the ground to trail behind when he wished to catch her. Then, rifle in hand, he approached the huge animals, and, being a good hunter, knew well to take advantage of the inequalities of the ground and face the wind ; by which means he crawled at length to within forty yards of the buffalo, which quietly cropped the grass, unconscious of danger. Now, for the first time, he gaz...ed upon the noble beast he had so often heard of and longed to see. 110 IN THE OLD WEST With coal-black beard sweeping the ground as he fed, an enormous bull was in advance of the others, his wild brilliant eyes peering from an immense mass of shaggy hair, which covered his neck and shoulder. From this point his skin was smooth as one's hand, a sleek and shining dun, and his ribs were well covered with shaking flesh. Whilst leisurely cropping the short curly grass, he oc- casionally lifted his tail into the air, and stamped his foot as a fly or mosquito annoyed him — flap- ping the intruder with his tail, or snatching at the itching part with his ponderous head.
