What reading level is The Adventure of Elizabeth Morey, of New York book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The sun dropped into the western sea-rim, and there was still no signof the captain's boat. On the shore an ominous silence prevailed, though now and then it would be broken by the weird, resonant boom ofa conch-shell. The night was passed in the greatest anxiety by all onboard, every man, musket in hand, keeping a keen lookout.
Almost as the dawn broke, two canoes were seen to put off from Nukualofabeach, and come towards the ship. They were manned by young Tongan"bucks" who, in reply to the m...ate's questions as to the whereabouts ofthe captain and his crew, answered him with gestures which the ship'scompany rightly enough construed as meaning that their comrades had allbeen killed, and that _their_ turn would come shortly. This so enragedthe seamen that they tried to induce Mr. Wright to open fire on thecanoes, destroy them, and get the ship away before worse happened. Butthe mate, hoping that his people on shore were still alive, and that hecould yet rescue them, refused to comply, and the whole of that day andnight passed without further happening.
