What reading level is Arctic Experiences Containing Capt George E Tysons Wonderful Drift On the Ic book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
— The Leak gains. — Steam up. — Roll-call on Board. — Lookout for the Floe Party. — Storm abated. — Inspection of Stores. — The Polaris fast to grounded Hummocks. — "Let her fill!" — Life-boat Cove, — The Polaris left a Legacy to an Esquimau Chief. — She founders in his Sight.
The south-west gale of October 15, which culminated in the breaking up of the ice which surrounded the Polaris^ and in leav- ing the party under Captain Tyson adrift on the floe, was almost equally disastrous to the vesse...l. All of a sudden, snap went the bow -hawser, "like a pack-thread, " slip went the anchors, and away went the Polaris none knew whither ; for the darkness and the blinding, drifting snow prevented all observation.
The floe remained grounded during the night between the heavy bergs, which by their pressure had disrupted the ice sur- rounding the Polaris ; but the vessel was driven by the force of the wind in a north-easterly direction ; and on the morning of October 16 they found their position to be "a little north of Lit- tleton Island, in Smith Sound — having been exactly abreast of Sutherland Island during a portion of the night.
