What reading level is Mackenzie Selkirk Simpson book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Beside this far west stream they encamped for the night. The boiling waters of this treacherous river were worse than anything they had seen on Peace River. On the resumption of the journey after their long portage the canoe had been dashed with fury on the 76 ON THE NECHACO RIVER rocks. Then a few holes were stove in the bottom, and the sad condition of the voyageurs was such that the " Indians without attempting to help, sat down and gave vent to their tears. " The canoe escaped destruction..., although ammunition and some uten- sils of value were lost. While mending the shattered canoe Mackenzie despatched two of his men through the westward thickets to find the great river they were seeking. On June 19th Mackenzie makes this announce- ment : " The morning was foggy, and at three we were on the water. " The story of the succeeding days need hardly be given. The travellers were on the stream which Simon Eraser descended in 1806, this has always been regarded as one of the most dangerous feats ever undertaken by man.
