To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That night we dined in the main dining hall, but my appetite was LUMBER AND WILD RUBBER CAMP. spoiled by a sign on the wall which read: Ice cream, $15. 00; sliced ham r $45. 00; ox tongue, $100. 00. After dinner we walked around in the cool of the evening, bought some Aztec pottery warranted to be genuine, and later retired to our room. It was then that we began to appreciate the deadly stillness of the tropics. The dog fight that started in the hallway ended in our room, as the combatants fell... against the door and burst in. This, mingled with the evening song of several cats, the katydid chorus, and the constant whistling of the police patrol, soon lulled us to sleep; that is, accurately speaking, it lulled one of us, who, when he once lost 252 EXPERIENCES IN COLOMBIA himself, had the whole tropical chorus beaten to a standstill. As an originator of strange gasps, groans, sobs, and strangling snorts, he out- classed anything that we had ever heard before, and while we did not sleep, we lay and listened, filled with awe, as in the presence of the emperor of all snorers.
