What reading level is Narrative of My Captivity Among the Sioux Indians With a Brief Account of Gene book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I afterward learned that some persons with the train who had suffered the loss of dear relatives and friends in the massacre of Minnesota, and who had lost their all, had poisoned the crackers with strychnine, and left them on one of their camping-grounds without the captain's knowledge.
The Indians told me afterward that more had died from eating bad bread than from bullets during the whole summer campaign.
Captain Fisk deserves great credit for his daring and courage, with his meager supply o...f men, against so large an army of red men.
After assurance of my presence among them, Captain Fisk proceeded to treat quietly with the savages on the subject of a ransom, offering to deliver in their vil lage three wagon loads of stores as a price for their prisoner.
To this the deceitful creatures pretended readily to agree, and the tortured captive, understanding their tongue, heard them making fun of the credulity of white soldiers who believed their promises.
152 NARRATIVE OF CAPTIVITY I had the use of a field-glass from the Indians, and with it I saw my white friends, which almost made me wild with excited hope.
