What reading level is The Covered Wagon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
By chance she saw Jed's knife at his belt as he kneeled, and drew it. Clumsily but steadily she slashed into the shaft, weakened it, broke it, pushed the point forward. Jackson himself unhesitatingly pulled it through, a gush of blood fol- lowing on either side the shoulder. There was no time to notice that. Crippled as he was, the man only looked for weapons. A pistol lay on the ground and he caught it up.
But for the packs and bales that had been thrown against the wheels, the inmates of the ...corral would all have fallen under the rain of arrows that now slatted and thudded in. But they kept low, and the Indians were so close against the wagons that they could not see under the bodies or through the wheels. The chocks had not yet been taken out from under the boxes, so that they stood high. Against such a barri- cade cavalry was helpless. There was no warrior who wanted to follow Jackson's example of getting inside.
For an instant there came no order to fire. The men were reaching into the wagons to unsling their rifles from the riding loops fastened to the bows.
