To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Great precipices of lime-stone on either side, a boiling river below, mountains of bold broken outline ahead, marked the journey onward. The road climbed frequently, even though it followed the growing river. Patches of tobacco, as well as coffee, covered the steep hillsides ; vegetation and mankind were everywhere. Here and there the highway clung by its fingernails and eyebrows, as sailors say, along the face of the clifif. Then it regained solid footing and broke out into a broad, flat coast...land, hot, dusty, and uninteresting, with cane and smoke-belching sugar-mills, and hurried across it to Atlantic-washed Arecibo. CHAPTER XIII IN AND ABOUT OUR VIRGIN ISLANDS IT 'S all I can do to keep from barking at you, " said a passenger on the Virginia, as he crawled on hands and knees from one of the four kennels that decorate her afterdeck. As a matter of fact, we all did a certain amount of growling before the voyage was over. Yet the four of us who had won the kennels were lucky dogs compared to the unfortunate dozen or more who had to snatch what sleep they could curled up on the bare deck or in a single sour-smelling cabin below, where neither color, sex nor seasickness knew any distinction.
