To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
During this period the Samoans built many substantial roads over the roughest sort of country, and the remains of these great works are still to be seen in many of the inland districts. In many cases they are used to this very day. The dry stone walls are built so carefully that the rocks still maintain their original positions, though doubtless shaken by many a mighty convulsion of nature in an age when phenomena of this sort were far from uncommon. Adversity, that strongest of all incentives ...to desperate resolve, finally drove the Samoans to recommence an ac- tive and aggressive campaign, and in a comparatively short period the Tongans were driven from Savaii and Upolu to the easternmost islands of the group, where they would have been allowed to remain in peace had not the Samoan chiefs of those islands come to Upolu and humbly begged the assistance of their victorious countrymen. After a prepa- ration occupying nearly two years a fleet was gotten to- gether, and under the command of several chiefs it sailed for Tutuila, where a party of the Tongans were met and defeated.
