What reading level is Christopher Columbus And the New World of His Discovery — volume 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was no light matter to superintendthe appointment of the crews and passengers, every one of whom wasprobably interviewed by Columbus himself, and at the same time to keeplevel with Archdeacon Fonseca. This official, it will be remembered, had a disagreement with Columbus as to the number of personal attendantshe was to be allowed; and on the matter being referred to the King andQueen they granted Columbus the ridiculous establishment of ten footmenand twenty other servants.
Naturally Fonseca... held up his hands and wondered where it would all end. It was no easy matter, moreover, on receipt of letters from the Queenabout small matters which occurred to her from time to time, to answerthem fully and satisfactorily, and at the same time to make out all thelists of things that would likely be required both for provisioning thevoyage and establishing a colony. The provisions carried in those dayswere not very different from the provisions carried on deep-sea vesselsat the present time--except that canned meat, for which, with its horrorsand conveniences, the world may hold Columbus responsible, had not thenbeen invented.
