What reading level is Adventures in Mexico And the Rocky Mountains book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
what a sight met my eyes ! The gallery seemed a mass of fire, yet there was no blaze and no heat. The rock which contained the vein of ore, and the ore itself, were like solid fire ; and yet it wasn't fire, for there was no heat, as I said, but a glare so bright that one could see away into the rock, which seemed to extend miles and miles ; and every grain of quartz, and even the smallest particle of sand, of which it was composed, was blazing with light, and shone separately like a million dia...monds knocked in one ; and yet the eye saw miles into the bowels of the earth, and every grain of sand was thus lit up. But if the stone, and the grit, and the sand were thus fiery bright, and the eye scorched to look upon it, what words can describe the glitter of the vein, now of sparkling silver, and white, as it were, with flame, but over which a black blush now and then shot, and instantaneously disappeared ? It wanted not this, however, to tell me that I was looking at the endless veta negro, the scorned, abused black vein, which throbbed, miles and miles away into the earth, with virgin silver, enough to supply the world for worlds to come.
