What reading level is Mr. Trunnell, Mate of the Ship "pirate" book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Her main topgallant mast was also gone atthe cross-trees, but the maintopsail held strongly. Altogether she waspretty well wrecked aloft.
While we watched her we drew nearer, and when she came within a couple ofmiles I could make out a flag, the English ensign, union down, in themain rigging. This showed pretty plainly that she was doing badly andwanted help, but it was absolutely useless to think of doing anything forher while the wind held and the sea showed no signs of going down.
Being much... lighter than she was, we drifted off more, and we came nearerand nearer as the morning brightened into a dirty day. In a short time wehad her close under our lee, not half a mile distant. Indeed, it lookedas though we might get closer than we wished to. The wind slackedgradually, however, and before long we managed to get out ourmain-topmast staysail. Then followed a close-reefed foresail balanced aftby the mizzen lower topsail, which we had saved. This, with the spencerand canvas already set, gave us a good hold of the ship in spite of thesea, and we were ready to wear if necessary.
