To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some were shy, others gave fair chances, but I would not shoot. I hoped that by moving through the others without alarming them, I might be able to pass in rear of the herd containing the white buck. As I afterwards learnt, my friend had fallen in with him early in the day, and had fired without success, and he was not again inclined to allow himself to be approached. The country was quite open and level ; and even had the ground been favourable, the numberless deer scattered in all directions ...over the plain destroyed all hope of stalking him. I dodged after him for nearly a mile. I was far from home, and the sun was getting low. The deer seemed to suspect that all was not right, and I saw that my chance of a standing shot was small. At that moment some of the other deer took alarm at my horse, which was led at a considerable distance behind the cart. They trotted forward, and the white buck moved across my front to join them. He was about 150 yards from me. Aiming somewhat in front, I fired ; the buck reeled, and then went off at a long trot.
