What reading level is Through Timbuctu And Across the Great Sahara An Account of An Adventurous Journ book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here I was intro- duced to the agent, a most agreeable Frenchman, with whom I had a conversation about the funds which had been deposited with him in my favour. I had calculated the money I required for my journey from Freetown to Bamako to a nicety, and was very glad to be now able to draw a further supply. Here, also, it was necessary to arrange for further drafts to be made payable to me at Timbuctu or some place down the Niger, close to my intended starting-point for the desert. Unfortunate...ly the French Company had no branches open in the Soudan on the route I proposed to follow, and I foresaw difficulties looming ahead if I should be obliged to carry large sums on my person or in my loads. My chief fear was on the score of robbers. Having no escort, and not having too much faith in my servant's honesty, it seemed highly imprudent to carry with me more cash than was absolutely necessary. However, my friend the agent was most obliging and promised to try to arrange matters for me with another firm which had a house at Timbuctu.
