To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the northern parts of the continent, the rigid winters urged the in- habitants to fortify themselves with the skins of the Wild beasts, against the frost of the climate. 7. The remains of regular fortifications are now . seen on the banks of the Ohio, and large sepulchral piles or mounds are existing in that qountry ; but who raised these, or whence came the numerous hordes which, have been gathered there to sepulchral honours, is and ever will be unknown. If the license of a con- jecture mi...ght be indulged, I would inquire, whether the wars of the northern against the southern nations, might not make the banks of the Missisippi, and of the rivers which pay tribute to it, the ancient theatres of bloody contests ? 8. In that part of America, the remains of such for- tifications are found as were at first discovered in South America ; these must have been raised by the people of Mexico and Peru, because the northern nations never possessed the art. Had the northern Indians been ca- pable of such means of defence, the remains of their £brts, at least, would have been seen.
