What reading level is Peru 1 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
On the departure of his vessel, the Spanish commander made an attempt to explore the country and see if some Indian set- tlement might not be found, where he could procure refresh- ments for his followers. But his efforts were vain, and no trace was visible of a human dwelling ; though in the dense and impenetrable foliage of the equatorial regions the distance of a few rods might suffice to screen a city from observation.
The only means of nourishment left to the unfortunate advent- urers were... such shell-fish as they occasionally picked up on the shore, or the bitter buds of the palm-tree, and such berries and unsavory herbs as grew wild in the woods. Some of these were so poisonous that the bodies of those who ate them swelled up and were tormented with racking pains. Others, preferring famine to this miserable diet, pined away from weakness and actually died of starvation. Yet their resolute leader strove to maintain his own cheerfulness and to keep up the drooping spirits of his men.
