What reading level is A book of the Wilderness And Jungle book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Major Sandbach, R. A. , died from the same cause after a terrible ex- perience with a lioness in Somaliland. The brute had previously bitten a native, who died the same night. In this encounter also, the Major's shikari had fled with the second gun, and the lioness was on him at once. He thrust THE VENGEANCE OF THE WILD 251 the butt of his rifle into her jaws, but she crunched it like matchwood. Then she seized his right hand and worried it so terribly that, by way of making her let go, he gave... her his left. The lioness was then shot, and his men got him alive back to Aden, but, though he underwent an operation without further delay, the poison had got into his system and he died within a month.
The lion is probably the most dangerous animal in Africa. At any rate, it has been responsible for more accidents, fatal or other- wise, to sportsmen than any other, and if South Africa has of late years played a minor part in the history of these tragedies, it is only because, during the past quarter of a century, Englishmen have shot ten lions in British East Africa and Somaliland to one bagged in the country south of the Zambesi.
