To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

After au hour of this most disagreeableand fatiguing walk we reached the village, followed by the men withour guns, ammunition, boxes, and bedding all more or less soaked. Weconsoled ourselves with some hot tea and cold fowl, and went early tobed.
The next morning was clear and fine, and I set out soon after sunrise toexplore the neighbourhood. The village had evidently been newly formed, and consisted of a single straight street of very miserable huts totallydeficient in every comfort, and as
...bare and cheerless inside as out. Itwas situated on a little elevated patch of coarse gravelly soil, coveredwith the usual high rigid grass, which came up close to the backs ofthe houses. At a short distance in several directions were patches offorest, but all on low and swampy ground. I made one attempt along theonly path I could find, but soon came upon a deep mud-hole, and foundthat I must walk barefoot if at all; so I returned and deferred furtherexploration till after breakfast. I then went on into the jungle andfound patches of sago-palms and a low forest vegetation, but the pathswere everywhere full of mud-holes, and intersected by muddy streamsand tracts of swamp, so that walking was not pleasurable, and too muchattention to one's steps was not favourable to insect catching, whichrequires above everything freedom of motion.
