What reading level is Indian Tales for Boys Or the Back Woodsman And True Stories of the Frontier book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
He accord- ingly called the guard and requested him to send word to the general that he desired an interview.
Harmar, in response to Weitzel's message, came to see him. The prisoner admitted, without hesitation, although without the slightest bravado, that he had shot an Indian. In very plain language he told the general his motives, and asked him what he intended to do. General Harmar replied that the military law would have to take its course. The punishment for so grave an offense, he said, ...was summary, and execution would probably be the result.
At this information, Weitzel told his visitor that he had often braved death in a thousand terrible shapes.
THE ADVENTURES OF LEWIS WEITZEL. 279 He said that it had no terrors for him, since he was, and had always been, a total stranger to fear. But, he asserted, although he knew nothing of fear, and would scorn to beg for his life, he still had some- thing of pride in his nature. He could not endure the thought of dying like a villain on the scaffold, and he entreated the general not to spare him from death, if it was indeed just that death should be his portion, but to grant him the boon of dying like a brave and fearless man.
