What reading level is Eighty Days: Nellie Bly And Elizabeth Bisland's History-Making Race Around the World book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
“The impudence and rudeness of the servants in America is a standing joke,” she would later write, “but if the servants on the Victoria are a sample of English servants, I am thankful to keep those we have, such as they are.”
THE PENINSULAR AND ORIENTAL Steam Navigation Company—the P&O, as it was universally known—had been in operation since 1837, when, as the Peninsular Company, it received a contract from the British government to run mail ships from London to Lisbon and Gibraltar. Very quick...ly its area of operations was extended to Malta and Alexandria, and in 1840, having now added “Oriental” to its name, the company was incorporated under royal charter to carry the British mails throughout the Far East. In 1887 the P&O celebrated its golden jubilee, which, fortuitously enough, coincided with that of Queen Victoria; to commemorate the double anniversary the company launched four new ships, each of them larger than any it had produced before, and gave them the impeccably patriotic names Victoria, Britannia, Oceania, and Arcadia.
