What reading level is Pacific Shores From Panama book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Indian women, dressed in crude colours, work in the fields of quinoa, the only grain that grows upon these wind-swept punas. Aymaras in black or red ponchos, silent, aloof, wait at the stations.
If the Quichua Indian is sad, the Aymara is even sadder still, a look of concentrated melancholy rest- ing ever upon his features. Unsocial, gloomy, whole families live together with scarcely, it would seem, [ 210 ] A GLIMPSE OF BOLIVIA a spoken word or a look of affection exchanged be- tween them.
By m
...any this habitual sadness is attributed to their excessive use of coca. And certainly no Aymara is ever seen without his chuspa or bag that contains this, his favourite drug, the delight, the support, and to some extent the necessity, of his life. I found it interesting to watch an Indian prepare to chew. First he makes himself as comfortable as possible, for it seems that, as in the case of opium, quiet and repose are essential to the full enjoyment of the drug. Then he takes his chuspa between his knees, and slowly, one by one, extracts the pale-green leaves, rolling them carefully to form a ball, which he chews until it ceases to emit its juice.
