What reading level is Patteson of the Isles book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If, as Bishop Selwyn had decided, the time had come for Melanesia to have its own Bishop, there could be little doubt about who that Bishop was to be. Patteson himself, though he urged Bishop Selwyn to think how many a man must be fitter for the great work, yet knew quite well that his own experience of the islands, his understanding of the people and their languages, marked him out as the one who must shepherd them. Noli episcopari — ' I don't want to be a Bishop, ' many a good man said in the... troubled early days of the Church, and the old stories tell how they ran away and FATHER OF THE ISLAND SONS 81 hid themselves and were discovered in all sorts of remark- able ways and made to shoulder the responsibility to which they had been called.
Coley Patteson did not run away, though he trembled at the thought of all those islands, the innumer- able people — so wild and so ignorant — and he to be father of them all, to plan and to think, to pray and to suffer for them, all unworthy as he felt of so high an office.
