What reading level is The Dawn of Canadian History : a Chronicle of Aboriginal Canada book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The ancients called these places the Islands of the Blessed and theFortunate Isles. It is, perhaps, not unnatural that in the earlierwriters the existence of these remote and mysterious regions should belinked with the ideas of the Elysian Fields and of the abodes of thedead. But the later writers, such as Pliny, and Strabo, the geographer, talked of them as actual places, and tried to estimate how many Romanmiles they must be distant from the coast of Spain.
There were similar legends among th...e Irish, legends preserved inwritten form at least five hundred years before Columbus. They recountwonderful voyages out into the Atlantic and the discovery of new land. But all these tales are mixed up with obvious fable, with accounts ofplaces where there was never any illness or infirmity, and people livedfor ever, and drank delicious wine and laughed all day, and we cannotcertify to an atom of historic truth in them.
Still more interesting, if only for curiosity's sake, are weird storiesthat have been unearthed among the early records of the Chinese.
