What reading level is Through Central Borneo An Account of Two Years Travel in the Land of the Head book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
As a rule the days were bright, warm, and beauti- ful; the few whiiii were cloudy seemed actually chilly and made one desire the return of the sun. Our first task was to make arrangements for the further journey up the Busang River to Tamaloe, a remote kam- pong recently formed by the Penyahbongs on the upper part of the river. We were about to enter the great ac- cumulation of kihams which make travel on the Busang peculiarly difficult. The lieutenant's hope that we might secure more men from ...among the rubber gatherers was not fulfilled. The few who were present made excuses, and as for the others, they were far away in the utan, nobody knew where. We still had some Malays, and, always scheming for money or advantage to themselves, they began to invent new difficulties and demand higher wages. Although I was willing to make allowances, it was impossible to go beyond a certain limit, because the tribes we should meet later would demand the same payment as their predecessors had received.
