What reading level is Big Game Shooting volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Forsyth mentions an instance of an elephant dying of wounds received from a tiger. It is all very fine for the sportsman to take a charge, standing in a how- dah perched on the back of a large tusker ; but it is a very dif- ferent thing for the opium-sodden nerves of an unarmed mahout riding a small timid pad elephant. Close order is the only safe formation for pad elephants, and should invariably be adopted. If the tiger is marked into a particular bush, the line may be halted, and the howdah ...elephants alone be taken up to engage him ; but until the mahouts have thorough confidence in the guns a fight is better avoided. It is a good plan to reward all the mahouts engaged after a successful hunt, and the douceur should be bestowed on the spot, or at latest the same evening on return to camp ; any mahout misconducting himself of course forfeits the reward. A wounded tiger rarely t goes far before lying up, and there is really less chance of a close line missing him than an extended one, as with tne latter he may crouch and be passed over.
