What reading level is The Saint Lawrence Its Basin Border Lands the Story of Their Discovery Expl book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The coast was resorted to every summer by fishermen for the sole object of commerce, and there was no inducement to exploration, since the eastern shores of Newfound- land and Acadia swarmed with fish and abounded in safe and commodious harbours. It is, of course, possible that some sailor, more curious than the rest, may have penetrated farther; but, if so, not a vestige of his enter- prise has come down to our day. The vessels frequent- ing the coasts were owned by merchants in the ports of w...estern Europe. The merchants of St. Malo may be taken as a type of the rest. They did not care for dis- coveries, and they set themselves obstinately against Cartier's enterprise, and hid away their sailors and pilots to prevent them joining his expedition, until the King's authority was appealed to in court. In that very appeal, however, it is clear that the Strait of Belle-Isle was well known, for Cartier's intention is avowed " passer le des- troict de la baye des Chasteaiix, " to go beyond the Strait off Chateau Bay — for that was the name by which the Strait of Belle-Isle was then known.
