What reading level is The Tracks And Landfalls of Bering And Chirikof On the Northwest Coast of Americ book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Jefferys gives no indication of a bay in the map re- ferred to, nor in the one which he says is a republication of that issued by the Academy of Sciences of St. Petersburg.
On the 17th of August, 1775, Don Bruno de Heceta, in the Span- ish discovery schooner Sonora, after describing Mt. San Jacinto (Edgecumbe) and Cape Deception, continued his course along the coast to the northwestward, and anchored for one day in 50 fathoms of water in the northeastern part of a bay which he named Guada- lupe...; and he says the shores are very steep and wooded, and the water excessively deep. He did not see any canoes or Indians, and was very glad to get from so dangerous a position. He places this bay in latitude 57° 11'. Surely Chirikof would not have anchored here, and fitted out a boat for exploration under such conditions.
In 1786 and '87 Captains Portlock, Dixon, Meares and others were fur trading on this northwest coast; and when under the immediate shores, were constantly seeking for bays and inlets that they might meet natives for the purposes of barter.
