What reading level is The Happy Hunting-Grounds book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Translations from the Portuguese are infre- quent; the only ones we can recall were of Camoes and Ega de Queiroz. In Brazil the only translation from Spanish we met with was of Don Quixote.
TWO BOOK-HUNTERS 135 English books generally go reasonably at auctions. We got a copy of Page's Paraguay and the River Plate for twenty-five cents, but on another occasion had some very sharp bid- ding for Wilcox's History of Our Colony in the River Plate ^ London, 1807, written during the brief period when ...Buenos Ayres was an English possession. It was finally knocked down to us at twelve dollars; and after the auction our opponent oflfered us twice what he had let us have it for; we don't yet know what it is worth. The question of values is a diflScult one, for there is little or no data to go upon; in consequence, the element of chance is very considerable. From several sources in the book world, we heard a wild and most im- probable tale of how Quaritch and several other London houses had many years ago sent a consignment of books to be auctioned in the Argentine; and that the night of the auction was so cold and disagreeable that the exceed- ingly problematical buyers were still further reduced.
