What reading level is Adventure in New Zealand From 1839 to 1844 With Some Account of the Beginning book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Two lives had been unfortunately lost in this wreck. George Wade, one of two brothers who had been among the earliest to bring cattle and horses from Hobart Town, and whose energy and perseverance had contributed not a little to the active progress of the settlement in its younger days, was one of those lost. The other was the native chief Wide-awake, whom I have already mentioned more than once.
The Waikanae natives, we heard, who were re- lated to him, had made his death an excuse for plun- d...ering the wreck. Although all professing to be mihanere, or Christians, they had not scrupled to allege the old native custom as their apology, and claimed whatever they could collect or take as utu for the death of their chief. On the receipt of this disastrous intelligence, forty young settlers armed and started for the spot, taking it for granted that the Police Magistrate would, as usual, be unable or unwilling to interfere. Mr. John Wade joined the CHAP. XVIII. STAGNATION IN GOVERNMENT SETTLEMENTS.
