What reading level is Lonely Lands Through the Heart of Australia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A minute's walk away is the beach, or rather a series of beaches, broken by stony ridges jutting out into the sea, but covered at high tide. On the lower side of the cape is Chinatown, which, to the visitor from the steamer, appears to be the principal portion of the Port, although it consists of but one long street, with galvanised iron shops, un- painted and ugly. Over the shop doors are various brilliantly-painted signs, with little flags flying, and what seems, but for the bright colouring,... to be wax funeral wreaths. There is little of the gaudy Asiatic splendour about this Chinatown, but there is sufficient of the Asiatic squalor. There are approximately three thousand Chinamen in the country and about eight hundred white people. Definite information about population is difficult to get, as the people here seem to have acquired the usual tropical dislike for details. But even this indefinite estimate shows that the number of whites is altogether out of proportion to LONELY LANDS 163 the number of Chiue.
