To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
From the early years of this century not a summer passes without a dozen or more prospecting parties arriving in Spitsbergen. Some come with well-equipped expeditions, which have among their staff geologists, and other experts competent to examine the ground and choose estates of value. Others are amateurs who arrive in their own yachts, or find their way in some chartered sloop. Many claims are of no value, most are abandoned the year they are made, and a great number have no validity, as they... are trespasses on pre-existing claims. Green Harbour for many years was the happy hunting ground of prospectors. It is easily accessible, and its eastern side contains valuable coal measures. The foreshore is littered with claim boards. The Americans in Advent Bay used to maintain that their estate extended westward and embraced the whole PROSPECTORS 229 of the eastern side of Green Harbour. A Norwegian company, called the Green Harbour Coal Company, disputed this, and maintained a prior claim.
