What reading level is New Zealand book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Rauparaha, surrounded by his armed followers, met and of course defied them. They made as though to arrest him. There was a scuffle ; a gun went off, and in the confused conflict which followed, the undisciplined settlers were panic-stricken and ran. Five gentlemen and four labourers, ashamed to follow, gave themselves up to Rauparaha. But Rangiheata had a blood feud with the English. Some time before, a Maori woman, a relative of his, had been murdered by a white who, however, when tried in th...e Supreme Court, had been acquitted. Now was the hour for vengeance. Rangiheata fell upon the unresisting prisoners and tomahawked them all. Captain Wakefield, thus untimely slain, 76 IN THE VALLEY OF HUMILIATION. was not only an able pioneer leader, but a man of high worth, of singularly fine and winning character, and far the most popular of his family. The Wairau Massacre, as it was called, gave a shock to the young colony. The Maoris triumphantly declared that the mana (prestige) of the English was gone.
