What reading level is An Excursion to the Mammoth Cave And the Barrens of Kentucky With Some Notices book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In this visi- ters would row down the stream two hundred yards, till stopped by a ledge of rock. Tw'o of my acquaintances, a week afterwards, obtained a new skiff*, and re- solved to pass the barrier. Accordingly, lifting the skiff" over the rock, they launch- ed it on the other side, and rowed, as they thought, for two miles. They beheld a great many new scenes and chambers never explored before. They also saw some of the lohite fish. As for us, on our visit, we were not favoured w^ith a sight... of these natural curiosities, which would have been to the full as interesting a spectacle as Prince Bonbobbin's white mice with green eyes, for which he ransacked the world. All we found was a poor miserable mud- fish, caught with the hand by the guide, near the shore, blinded by the light. It was certainly a wonderful thought, that such a body of water should have been flowing here a furlong at least under ground, in the silence and gloom of cen- 56 turies. So far are these subterranean realms beneath the surface, that a gentle- man assured me, a thunderstorm once occurred over his head, while he was in the cave, of which he and his party were totally unconscious.
