What reading level is The History of Cuba book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Indeed it is believed that it would be difficult if not impossible to find desirable and economically satisfactory locations for even so large a number.
Wherever possible, virgin forests are cleared and planted for cane fields, as the accumulated humus of cen- turies produces a growth of cane that with care will en- dure for from five to twenty-five years without replant- ing. In Oriente cane fields are still producing good crops which were planted fifty and even sixty years ago.
This method of
... cane culture is, however, most uneco- nomical, since the soil in time will certainly become ex- hausted. No plant responds more quickly to judicious and generous use of fertilizers than does sugar cane; and, according to the best authorities, no matter how rich the soil may be, it pays to fertilize.
In opening up a sugar plantation, the trees are first felled and the trunks of valuable timber drawn off the land, while the limbs, brush and other waste materials are piled and burned. Owing to the previous shade of the trees, the ground is free from weeds, and but little preparation of the soil is required.
